Hello
I'm Emma, I used to have a bad back (I probably still would if I stopped doing Pilates).
I teach Pilates on the mat, on reformer, in person around Sherborne Dorset and online.
I help people feel stronger and more flexible. The aim is to do this in an inclusive environment where everyone feels comfortable to be themselves.
About Me

I am a Pilates Instructor Associate member of The Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity (CIMSPA)
​
Originally qualified with STOTT PILATES™, I also hold the Postgraduate Pilates Certificate: Integrating the Pilates Method for Long Term Medical Conditions - This means I can further help and support my clients.
