“Every moment of our life can be the beginning of great things”- Joseph Pilates
Hi, I’m Charlotte!
Welcome to my little space on the internet, I’m so glad you’re here! Here’s a little more about me…
For as long as I can remember I have always had a keen interest in movement and from a young age I spent most of my free time horse riding and dancing. When I moved to London I really missed having something active to do in my spare time so I went for the most obvious solution - I joined the gym. I was a regular at the gym for many years but really, truthfully I never really enjoyed it. I was unfulfilled, frustrated and frankly a little disinterested. I then came accross Barre and Pilates! I loved the fact that both forms of exercise were low impact, focused and that no class was ever the same. I was amazed by all of the muscles I discovered and never knew existed. I felt stronger, more flexible and most importantly I was finally enjoying moving again and really looked forward to my classes!
I began my training as a Barre Instructor with Barreworks in Richmond, run by Vicki Anstey who trained in the original Lotte Berk technique and with NYC Ballet. It’s there that I fell in love with teaching and went on to train as a Pilates Instructor with HFE where I gained a Level 3 Diploma in Mat Pilates and Pilates for Pre and Postnatal Clients. I furthered my Pilates training with BASI, learning more about mat Pilates, Reformer Pilates and all Pilates equipment. I truly believe that everyone can build movement into their life that they love and that nourishes both the mind and body. I hope that my story helps to inspire you to taking the first step in trying something new! As Joseph Pilates said “Every moment of our life can be the beginning of great things!”.
I hope to see you on the mat or at the Barre soon!
