Pilates is nearly 100 years old; developed over a lifetime by Joseph H. Pilates. His aim was to improve physical resilience through strength and flexibility, balance the body, increase control, and rehabilitate injury.
Pilates is an unrivalled support to whatever physical issues you may have. It attunes your balance, corrects your posture, sculpts your physique, develops longer, leaner muscles, and is a game-changer for any professional sportsperson or dancer.
As a former professional dancer myself, I have experienced a variety of physical issues so Pilates is a natural progression and vital support for me.
On the mat or the apparatus, Pilates is tailored to your needs.
I assess, support and challenge my clients to work hard, feel great, have fun and be the best version of themselves.
I am currently teaching in Tunbridge Wells and Central London.
" Melanie is fantastic at working you hard, whilst making it fun and ensuring that the correct muscles are being used for the exercises. The sessions are specific to your needs and build each time to maximise the results and impact. Working with Melanie was very valuable in improving my core and preparing me for my racing as well as having better posture and more body awareness."
Tom Elphick - triathlete
"What a joy to find Melanie and indulge in weekly 1:1 Pilates sessions either online or in the studio. I trust her completely to keep me safe whilst pushing the boundaries of my strength and mobility.
Jackie Hurst-Brown
"From the first session it was clear to me that Melanie was a gifted teacher with an unerring eye for correct alignment and form. Her passion, professionalism and aptitude for her craft are communicated effortlessly by her cheery, unflappable demeanour and precise instructions. Melanie's classes are the highlight of my week and the progress I have made has been astounding."
