Kylie went through many different workout regimes, but as soon as she found Pilates, she knew this was the right thing for her. Pilates is fantastic at keeping the body and core strong, which helps to avoid injury and stress in physically demanding jobs. The deep connection with the breath is so good at calming the mind.

She loves that Pilates is for everyone, it doesn’t matter what age, shape or size you are, or what you want to accomplish. Pilates can help you achieve your fitness goals, and help you lead a happy, healthy life.

However, having graduated from professional dance training, Maea discovered Yoga and Pilates. These forms of movement allowed her to enjoy and be grateful for her body’s ability to move with strength and fluidity. This helped her create a sense of fitness being not just physical but also mental, emotional and holistic; and her understanding that exercise is a passion and not a punishment.

As a trainer, Maea wishes to use her experiences and training to help others form a healthy relationship with movement and exercise that enhances not only their physical wellbeing but also their mental wellbeing and general lifestyle. Prioritising enjoyment and passion over level or ability will ensure every individual leaves feeling worked, fulfilled and happy. “It is not about what it looks like, it is about what it feels like.”

Maea aims to deliver well-rounded sessions, providing the necessary aspects to achieve strength and fluidity as well as enjoying the process of progressing.

This passion for movement and expression led Natalia to pursue a comprehensive education in Dance, with a specialization in Contemporary Dance, at ARCIS University. It was during her studies that she was introduced to the Pilates Technique, which profoundly impacted her approach to physical fitness and well-being. The dynamic and fluid nature of Pilates exercises resonated with her, and she was inspired by the rapid and tangible results it delivered in terms of strengthening and toning the body.

After completing her degree, she decided to deepen her involvement in Pilates by pursuing training as a Pilates mat and comprehensive instructor at Pilatesqi Chile. This additional training has allowed Natalia to expand her expertise and share her passion for Pilates with others.

Throughout her career, she has continuously sought out new approaches and methods to enhance her understanding of movement and physical expression. Currently, her primary focus is on integrating the principles of dance and Pilates to create a unique and holistic approach that emphasises fluidity, strength, and the mind-body connection.

Natalia’s commitment to personal and professional growth is unwavering. She is deeply passionate about sharing the numerous benefits of Pilates with her students and clients, and she is dedicated to contributing to their overall happiness and well-being through movement and mindful exercise.

When she realised that an office job wasn’t for her, she turned to personal training and fitness instruction, determined to help others find a healthy relationship with their bodies and exercise. Since then she has explored a wide range of different workout styles including strength training and HIIT, however she has always enjoyed and returned to Pilates, loving the core strength and improvements in her flexibility that she has noticed after her sessions.

After moving to London Simone decided to take another step in her fitness career and become a qualified Pilates instructor, with the desire to teach and show others the benefits of Pilates.

Overall Simone strongly believes that health and fitness should be a positive and fun journey for everyone. She brings a bubbly, welcoming energy to each of her classes and uses this to help motivate and challenge each participant, leaving them feeling great and wanting more!

Outside of teaching Simone has a strong passion for Aerial Circus, and you’ll often find her hanging from the ceiling off silks and hoops. She also loves travelling and exploring different cultures and cuisine and taking mini get-aways to new locations.

Keen to combine his university studies with his passion for working with others, Tom completed his Gym Instructor and Personal Training qualifications. He enjoys working closely with clients to help them unlock their potential, overcome challenges, and become the best version of themselves that they can be. Whether it is teaching a new client the basics of the gym, or training elite athletes in a strength and conditioning environment, Tom feels that a combination of communication, team-work and dedication can achieve most goals.

Always striving to push himself and increase his knowledge in the industry, Tom went on to gain his BACPR Level 4 Cardiac Exercise Instructor qualification, allowing him to help clinical populations with exercise prescription. It was during this time that he fell in love with clinical exercise prescription, and the opportunity to help clients with specific clinical needs, goals, and requirements. For Tom, helping people restore their day-to-day fitness after suffering health problems is as much – if not more – of an achievement as hitting a personal best on a bench press or 5k best time.

As a result, Tom has worked with GP referral clients in both a 1-2-1 and group exercise setting. Working together to achieve a common goal, and facing a variety of barriers and physical conditions, is the way he loves to work. Being able to understand specific needs, work through obstacles in the most effective ways for the clients and continuously developing their health, wellbeing and confidence is a particular strength of his. From improving the range of motion at specific joints, to increasing cardiovascular fitness to improve the quality of daily functional activities – no matter the aim, if it’s important to the client, it’s important to Tom.

Tom combines high energy and enthusiasm with a depth of practical and theoretical knowledge to provide fun, valuable, and thorough sessions that will support clients on their individual journeys.

During Eloise’s master’s degree, she was fortunate enough to talk to people who have been through cancer and cardiac rehabilitation, showing how important exercise is following these events.

To expand her knowledge, Eloise completed her Level 2 Gym Instructor and Level 3 Personal Training qualifications.

Courtney’s passion for sport remained with her throughout her childhood and adult years, leading her down the path of attaining a Sport and Exercise Science degree from the University of Surrey. She gained three CIMPSA qualifications throughout her degree: Gym Instructor, Personal Trainer, and Working with People with Long Term Conditions. She explored pathology, immunology, and exercise referral during the course, which confirmed her passion for the clinical sector. There is strong scientific evidence that being physically active can lead to a healthier and happier life, while also reducing risk or aiding the management of some conditions.

Therefore, an understanding of how the body responds to exercise, on a physiological level, seems fundamental to achieving optimal results.

Courtney is a hard-working individual, dedicated to learning and applying her knowledge. She grasps the uniqueness of the human body and intends to train each client as distinctively as possible. Courtney is a positive, calm person with a kind heart. She has a good sense of humour and values the importance of a comfortable training environment. Your health and safety are her top priority.

Before joining Ten, Chris was a personal trainer at one of the top luxury health clubs in London; his clients ranged from corporate office workers to semi-pro athletes, and everyone in between. He prides himself on remaining agile by making his sessions different every time, to keep clients interested and present.

Functional movement is at the core of Chris’ sessions, as he believes the foundations of our body should be strong and stable in order for us to progress and improve over time. This is why he is always looking to expand movement patterns to compliment these foundations. He enjoys disciplines such as Animal Flow,Yoga, meditation and Calisthenics, as he feels these contribute to his personal goal of being an all-round movement enthusiast.

We know clients want to feel and look good but many of them are unaware of the effects of modern-day life and how it can impact their bodies and health. Therefore, Chris believes it is more valuable for him to help clients gain control over their body and mind, this way they can become better movers in all aspects of their life beyond just training. Chris’ classes will always be filled with energy, positivity and he will give you the drive to get you where you want to be. We are all a constant work in progress, so there is always room for improvement, let’s put in the work together.

She has always been a keen horserider and a runner. When she moved to London she discovered Thai boxing, and after a few years’ training, moved to Kho Samui where she trained for a further five months, taking part in three fights (and winning all three).

On returning to London, she was persuaded to enter her first London Marathon – the first of 14 marathons (5 of them in London) all completed in good times, along with a100km race, which she finished in just over 10 hours.

When she lived in Australia and Vanuatu she took up cycling, and as a result found herself competing in the Alpes d’Huez. With its 21 hairpins, this is one of the legendary ascents of the Tour de France, which she climbed in just over an hour on a steel bike.

Just to add an extra element of challenge (and yet more travel), Caroll trained in Krav Maga in Israel, qualifying as an Instructor. And picking up some injuries along the way, which in turn, introduced her to Pilates and her teaching qualification.

Over the past decade she has participated in a number of courses at the some most respected institutes in the field of holistic health and exercise. With her in-depth understanding (and personal experience) that functional movement patterns are essential to maintain a healthy, efficient and pain free body, Carroll ensures that Pilates is at the core of every exercise and program that she does.

As a Trainer, Caroll is strict yet patient; a perfectionist but also a good motivator. As the basis of all Pilates, she insists on correct and transferable technique in all exercises – so you can practice in everyday life what you learn in class. But above all, she aims to develop routines that suit, stimulate and encourage everyone in her classes.

Having enjoyed performing professionally all over the UK and abroad, Jess is excited for her Pilates journey at TEN. She is enthusiastic about making a positive difference to your life and enabling you to see and feel life changing results from training.

Jess teaches with enthusiasm and a smile. She believes that by making exercise interesting and fun, it becomes easier to enjoy and stay motivated. She has a great eye for correcting alignment and you will find yourself learning about your body. She will encourage you to become more aware of your body and push yourself accordingly.

When Jess isn’t teaching Pilates, she likes to spend her spare time developing her aerial acrobatic skills, enjoying the great outdoors and unsurprisingly loves live entertainment.

With over a decade of training experience Sydney took up life as a PT after his father fell ill due to poor eating habits.

Since then, he has gained multiple certifications and proudly led several athletes to breaking and holding multiple British, European and world powerlifting records, including a successful defence of the world title in July 2022.

After suffering a back injury in a cycling accident, Sydney became obsessed with human movement and how each of our body parts are connected to each other through movement. Believing firmly in applying science to every aspect of training to maximise potential results and minimise injury risk, naturally Sydney’s motto became; Better Movement, Better Performance.

Sydney takes both a practical and theoretical scientific approach to assess his clients and structure suitable training programs. His programs are progressive to allow for gradual increments in load, and dynamic to enable changes to be made when needed.

There is strong scientific evidence that being physically active can lead to a healthier and happier life, while also reducing risk or aiding the management of some conditions. Exercise has also been proven to help prevent non-communicable diseases such as, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Therefore, an understanding of how the body responds to exercise, on a physiological level, seems fundamental to achieving optimal results.

Having trained as a professional dancer and spent over a decade in the industry, she has performed in national tours, international shows, TV and Film. She has always been grateful that she was able to turn her passion into a career and was also able to gain valuable knowledge of the body, injuries and rehab throughout. She has particularly loved discovering the magic of Pilates and its power to hold the body in a balance of strength and suppleness – the key to a long, injury-free career and life.

Her years in dance led to a passion for teaching, anatomy, remedial therapy and helping people. Always keen to increase her skillset, Sarah retrained as a Sports Massage and Soft Tissue Therapist at North London School of Sports Massage and as a Pilates instructor, through Ten’s accredited Academy.

Sarah understands the body, what it is capable of and that you can always achieve more than you believe. She particularly enjoys implementing knowledge from her dance background and clinical practice to teaching classes and training 1:1 clients. Whatever your goals may be, she will be your biggest cheerleader, main advocate for your progress and will make sure you always remember ‘you’ve got this and you’re smashing it’.

She loves to create a ‘let’s tackle this as a team’ energy with her clients and classes. Seeing a noticeable improvement in how they feel and move is what gets her out of bed in the morning! She won’t rest until you feel your best you and thriving both physically and mentally.

Sarah is rarely found sitting still and loves to keep active and creative. When she’s not working, you’ll find her in a pilates class, behind a camera, dancing on stage, making jewellery or doodling, running or walking in the great outdoors.
