Pilates That Works For You

Super happy with today’s run, didn’t think I would be able to do it, two days ago (Sunday) my back ‘went’, picking up the basket of shopping incorrectly. I couldn’t even stand up fully straight, my SI joint pained me when I walked. 😭 

So I got straight into action, I kept moving gently, mobilising my spine & pelvis, coupled with gentle stretching, trigger point balls & my infrared recovery blanket, I was 50% better when I woke on Monday 😊 I did the same protocol throughout the day, focusing my trigger point release work around my hips & Low back

I’m so happy with with how I felt today on my run 💪 I know my back & how to work on it when it acts up, What works for me might not work for you so always seek the help from a physio first before hoping a class of Pilates will fix all the issues, every body is different

Everyday I’m always aware of how lucky I am to do what I do. I’m so grateful for Pilates and the effect my classes have on people but also how I can apply my knowledge to help myself recover after hard training sessions correctly 😅 I do try share my knowledge on each class  much to everyone’s delight 😂

I just want to thank everyone for sticking with me for so long 🥰🥰 #livemyjob❤️

Love throwing in my hip series of stretching after Glute work, it’s so effective & adaptable especially if your hips or knees need a little bit more time to get back to their normal level of flexibility that your use to 🥰

Remember all my classes are LIVE online at the same time for my clients at home & abroad

Oh it’s good to be back, I love stretching out tight muscles, loosen up the joints & releasing those pesky trigger points. As active as I was over the break I definitely feel the benefits of Pilates ❤️

Need to spend more time on my flexibility but more importantly…. My mobility!!! 

I kept active over Christmas by challenging people I knew on Garmin to 10,000 daily step challenge, it really helped & motivated me to move more, I’m still doing the challenge for the month of January…. Anyone on Garmin, come join me & join the challenge 💪

It’s amazing how much strength & flexibility you loose in just a few short weeks!! 🥺 One of my new year resolutions for 2025 is to maintain / regain my strength so I’m planning on making a large purchase of hand weights to include in my Matwork & Reformer classes. 😈

It’s an interesting way to incorporate a level of challenge to a matwork class & strong muscles help maintain a higher metabolism, as we age age we loose muscle & gain weight so resistance training with weights or on the Pilates Reformer Machine helps build & maintain muscle density.

It’s finally Happening!!!!!! My Pilates Reformer Studio is back in Action 💪 

So it’s been nearly 6 month ago since the repairs started on my house & we had to move upstairs. It killed me not been able to use my reformers I’m feeling so weak & soft myself 😭 I had to keep disappointing all my clients for the entire summer till the work is done, now I still have a few bits & pieces to finish but I can officially reopen my studio & my online booking portal on my website 

I want to thank all my clients for their patience & I really appreciate your understanding throughout this ordeal which was quiet stressful but in the end it’s worth it 

I can’t wait to see all my regulars over the next few days & weeks Xx

Thank you so much for waiting on me 🙏

Have being doing Lisa's classes for years, and each class still makes you work! Classes are tailored to all abilities with modifications always suggested (though likely to be frowned upon if you take an easier option!). She embraced the online virtual class and has really made it work. Her classes alway incorporate stretches and the spikes balls at the end are great. Highly recommend Lisa's classes.

I have been doing on line pilates since May with Lisa. Her classes are very informative and I feel so much better. Working from home and having children I found it very hard to get out of the house to attend classes. Now that Lisa is doing zoom classes it is so much easier to do them from home.

I have been attending lisa s classes for about 10 years and can't praise her enough. I have arthritis, bursitis,facet joint degeneration and bulging discs.also broke a bone in my neck so was nervous about starting pilates . .but Lisa monitors your movements and corrects you quietly throughout class .she gives clear instructions and demonstrates all movements . She is also a genius when it comes to knowledge of anatomy . And she makes classes fun with her friendly bubbly personality. I even managed to drag my hubby along too. He agrees you won't find a better instructor. Thanks Lisa x x

Lisa is an excellent instructor who guides, entices and cajoles her students through the class. She encourages you to advance and improve while carefully monitoring your activities. She has a great sense of humour which helps with the pain!!! But there’s no gain without it!! There’s definitely gain in Lisa’s Pilates classes!

I am thoroughly enjoying the Zoom classes with Lisa - every bit as good as being in a Studio.Lisa is able to correct form even though she isn’t in the room with me. I love the classes; they are really keeping me going during Lockdown and beyond. Lisa puts people at ease and really works us at the same time....no pain no gain😎

Lisa is an excellent instructor. She encourages you to always work towards the next level. Her knowledge of anatomy and her ability to explain & help people to understand the links between the different parts of the body are extremely beneficial in aiding other forms of exercise / training. Her instruction is very clear and she's also very good humoured along the way! Try her class - you'll be glad you did. 🙂
