Class Timetable

Karen has always been active, keeping fit with her favourite bootcamp, HiiT and yoga classes. Though it wasn’t until she injured her back that she was introduced to Pilates for rehabilitation, and she hasn’t looked back since – going on to qualify as an instructor herself.

As Karen puts it, Pilates completely changed her life, and she is passionate about sharing what she has learned and helping people achieve their goals.

In particular, she enjoys supporting her clients as they overcome injuries, restore postural imbalances, strengthen core muscles and gain all of the mind/body benefits Pilates brings.

For Karen, Pilates is a way of life, especially if you come out of a class feeling a lot better than you went in!

Karen has worked with clients in a mixed group setting of all levels of fitness and ability. She also thrives working on a one-to-one basis, and she likes nothing better than seeing her clients improve over time. She believes that a little perseverance goes a long way!

In her spare time, she’s a big fan of spin classes and the odd high intensity workout. Outside the studio, she loves being out in nature, taking long walks, and going horse-riding when she gets the chance.

After graduating with his Sport and Exercise Science degree in Rome, Dario took the opportunity to complete his European Master of Science in Health and Physical Activity, which allowed him to study the principles of exercise therapy in the clinical environment. Through this, he came to understand just how beneficial exercise medicine is in multiple areas – from the improvement of mental health and the preservation of cognitive function in later life to the prevention and management of cardiovascular and respiratory conditions.

To expand this knowledge and deepen his understanding of these conditions, Dario trained further with a BACPR course, liaising with other professionals at the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust at the same time to improve his ability to apply cardiac rehabilitation principles in everyday practice.

Using this experience, Dario always looks for the best possible ways to enable clients to achieve their goals, and overcome any barriers and limitations they may be experiencing as a result of life-changing events.

Nikki is an energetic and passionate physiotherapist and Pilates instructor from South Africa. She graduated in 2018 from the University of Stellenbosch with a BSc in Physiotherapy. During her undergraduate years, she regularly volunteered at various sporting events, including cycling and running races, as well as rugby tournaments.

She then went on to complete her community service year in a general district hospital in Kwa-Zulu Natal (South Africa). There she treated a wide variety of conditions, including Neurological, Musculoskeletal, Pediatrics, Geriatrics, Orthopaedics and women’s health patients.

After completing her community service, she started working in a private practice in 2020 specialising in sports, orthopaedics and Musculoskeletal injuries. Here she worked with many in-hospital orthopaedic surgery patients. She worked as a first contact practitioner in the clinic, as well as an on-field physiotherapist for different sports teams, including Rugby, Athletics, Netball and Hockey teams.

She then went on to do her Mat Pilates teacher training course through BASI pilates in 2021 and started up weekly Pilates classes at the clinic.

Nikki uses a variety of treatment techniques in sessions with patients, including many “hands on” techniques, dry needling and most importantly therapeutic movement and exercise. She believes “change happens through movement, and movement heals” – Joseph Pilates.

When she is not at work, she enjoys long distance running, hiking and reading.
