RESULTS
RUNNERS
I have been teaching Pilates and Movement classes for runners for over fifteen years, working with runners of all ages and abilities, ranging from those looking to improve their 5k ParkRun to those competing at International level. I have run over 40 half and full marathons myself, and I qualified five years in a row for the London marathon as a “Good for Age” runner. Aside from the work in my own studio I am a senior teacher for Body Control Pilates, and have attended running courses for myself regularly over the last decade. I am passionate about helping others achieve their goals in running, helping them transform the way they run and to reconnect with the joy of running naturally.
