About

I am a trauma informed Pilates Therapist working with somatic touch. I am a Body Control Pilates (BCP) Matwork and Reformer trained teacher working in Christchurch and the surrounding area. I have specialist BCP training in osteoporosis and scoliosis.

 

I hold a BSc(Hons) in Psychology and am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner.

I am a ScarWork Therapist using gentle manual touch techniques to improve both functionality and pain after injury or surgery. I have a specialisation in post breast cancer ScarWork giving me a greater understanding of, and skills to deal with, the impact of chemotherapy and radiotherapy on tissue. 

 

I am Hypopressives qualified. Hypopressives work to reeducate the abdominal cavity, especially the pelvic floor and may help with prolapse, incontinence and posture. 

I have over 20 years of personal Pilates experience both in the UK and France. I teach equipment Pilates therapy in a small home studio as well as groups in Druitt Hall, Christchurch.

I am passionate about Pilates and embodied work that, with personal long term investment, has brought about increased flexibility, strength and resilience to my own body and mind.

Charity - Healing Hands Network

The Healing Hands Network organises complementary therapies to provide relief of suffering caused by war and the aftermath of war both in the UK and Bosnia. 

I am raising money to fund volunteer ScarWork in Sarajevo to help improve the quality of life for those with mental, physical and emotional after-effects of war.
