My sister and I have been practising Pilates for three years.When our previous instructor left we knew he'd be a hard act to follow.
Claire has more than succeeded.Her classes are fun, but also informative as she explains exercises and techniques in a way that's easy to understand.
In group classes, Claire ensures individual attention and tailors exercises to the abilities and requirements of each person.
We feel very fortunate to have an instructor so passionate about her profession.
Thank you Claire.

Thanks Claire for the information sheets from your Pilates Course. See you in 3 weeks after my holidays! P.S. I think the lessons are great - I have learnt more in your three lessons that I have in the past two years.

PROFILE
I have been a Health Professional for over eight years. In this time experiences with a wide range of clients have been truly rewarding. I am passionate about Health and Fitness, and this is a fundamental part in my own life.
My career began as an Aerobics Instructor whilst studying Sports Science at college. I then decided to become a Personal Trainer, which led to becoming a Partner in a Personal Training business.
I find the human body fascinating and believe that we all have potential that CAN be unlocked.
My work centres around correct movement patterns and alignment, Pilates being essentially my main focus. I am currently studying Body Control Pilates Level 3 in London.
I work privately with clients in their home and teach classes within the community. In addition, i work with Cambridge City Councils 'Forever Active ' Team delivering programmes for the older person for Falls Prevention and teach Pilates as part of their GP Referral Scheme.
I have good working relations with other Health Professionals, Sports Therapists, Gyms/leisure centres in and around the city of Cambridge.
My services offer professionalism and well accredited knowledge.
The training environment in the privacy of one's home often attracts busy mums and business professionals who require one to one and who have time contraints.
Initially i like to meet my clients in person where possible for tea/coffee and to talk through the Enrolment Forms and Health Questionnaires. From the information collected we then decide together which way to move forward.
It is also a great opportunity for the client and myself to connect and to ask any questions that may arise. Alternatively clients can contact me by e-mail or a call to my mobile with enquiries and i'll respond within two to three working days.
Throughout my career i have seen that people's needs and wants are varied and that everyone is unique, which is why an initial informal meeting really helps to tailor my services to the whole person.
I firmly believe every individual has potential that CAN be unlocked within themselves and it is with the whole mind /body approach that we can together work towards achieving complete body management.
I am an Advanced Instructor Level 3 on the Register of Exercise Professionals of which a requirement is to continue professional development, and so updating my knowledge.
I hope i can go on supporting people to enhance their lifes as i develop further in my career. My work represents what i truly believe in and it's whats kept me going in life's journey.......
