The
Founder 

Hi, I'm Emma!

 

As a professional dancer in the TV, and Musical Theatre industry Mat Pilates helped me maintain a neck injury throughout my 12-year career. Due to my ongoing injury, fitness made me nervous, and I worried workouts and activities would make the problem worse.

 

Later on, I was recommended Reformer Pilates by a friend who underwent a full rehabilitation program using the method. The reformer helped me build my core strength safely and I became more confident in my ability to work out. Having better knowledge about my body I stopped shying away from activities like group classes, home workouts and the gym and my fitness levels improved massively.

Feeling these life-changing benefits, I decided to train and teach others.

Now a certified STOTT pilates instructor with a pilates diploma I specialise in mat-work, Reformer and tower, I also have qualifications in sports massage therapy, dance and first aid.

My career in teaching pilates began in the London-based Reformer studios Zero Gravity in 2016. Since, I have worked in Australia alongside the Australian Pilates Association and went on to manage, teach and coach at the well-known "The Body Camp' in Ibiza and Mallorca. 

Isle of Wight Pilates

In 2018 I relocated to the Isle of Wight, originally an Islander I felt it was the perfect place to set up my own pilates business. Since I have been teaching Pilates classes across the island and opened my first 1-2-1 reformer studio on Ventnor beach front.

In September 2021 I took a 4-month break and returned in February 2022 after welcoming my little girl Gigi into the world, after taking a wonderful 4 months of maternity leave I couldn't wait to get back to classes.

In September '23' I opened the doors to the new Isle of Wight Pilates studio in Cowes, when returning to the Island from London 8 years ago I wanted to bring a little something back with me, a little something I felt was missing here. The Isle of Wight Plates Studio is a space I created to hold the first group of Reformer Pilates classes on the isle of Wight as well as mat Pilates, yoga and to provide a space to share with fellow teachers here on the island.

For updates please sign up to the mailing list, I promise I won't bug you too often ;)
