Gillian first came to Pilates in her youth as an accessible form of exercise to support her wellbeing in the midst of a series of health challenges. Finally able to feel strong enough and to get in touch with what her body was capable of doing, Gillian immediately fell in love. Having always had a keen interest in nutrition and health, personally and professionally, Gillian made the transition to trainer. Gillian secured her matwork certification with Body Control Pilates and has been teaching beginner and intermediate classes to a range of clients from all walks of life for the last several years. Most recently, Gillian completed certification from TEN Health & Fitness in Dynamic Reformer Pilates.

Not coming from a dance or sporting background, Gillian celebrates what Pilates offers to everyone regardless of their fitness history. She is passionate about working with clients from their unique starting points to help them grow stronger, gain greater awareness of their bodies, and be more confident in knowing what they are capable of. Expect to be pushed, encouraged, and to leave the studio feeling ready to take on whatever life may throw your way.

When she’s not in the studio, Gillian can be found outside exploring a new park, “Area of Natural Beauty”, or neighbourhood, running or spinning to chase those endorphins, or at her ‘day job’ working for a London-based charity where she leads a team of experts designing corporate social engagement opportunities.

Whilst she loved her years of dancing, she moved to Bristol aged 18 to study a BA in Primary Teaching. Despite graduating with a 2.1 degree, she quickly realised that the school classroom was not for her, and that her true passion and vocation lay in movement and fitness.

In 2010 she completed her Level 3 Personal Training qualification and since then has have worked many of London’s leading gyms and fitness studios training clients 1-1 and leading TRX and PowerPlate classes. She later went on to gain her Mat Pilates certificate.

Jen credits Pilates entirely for allowing her to regain her core strength and stability and getting her back into shape quickly after the birth of her son over 4 years ago. What she loves most about Pilates is the amount of focus needed in order to execute each exercise with control and precision. Unsurprisingly, her classes will encourage you to zone out from all other distractions so you can achieve a great mind-body connection that lets you feel each movement – and its benefits.

In her free time you will find Jen spending time with her little boy and trying out different food spots in London – she does love a naughty burger – which she will burn off later at the gym!

Although she had been very active and involved in many sports from childhood, the demands of Beverley’s corporate career became more demanding, leaving less and less time for fitness activities and the inevitable poor posture and injuries set in.

She discovered Pilates as a way to counter these issues and practised for many years. The results, and the balance of physical challenge and mental focus that her sessions provided, kept her hooked and helped her regain the strength and stability to try other activities again.

Beverley believes passionately that Pilates is the foundation for good posture and improved form in everything from everyday functional movement to excelling in sports and physical activities, and can play a massive role in rehabilitation and recovery.

She completed her Mat Pilates teaching qualifications in 2016 and switched careers straight away.

Believing it is never too late to try something new in life and Beverley gets great enjoyment and reward from teaching Pilates to clients of all ages and stages. For many of her clients, Pilates can feel like multi-tasking at the beginning, with so many things to think about. But over time the application and effort starts to bring amazing results – reinforcing Beverley’s conviction that that anything of value takes time and patience to build well.

In her spare time Beverley is very active, attending spinning and cardio-based classes. She’s also very interested in the arts and when she’s not teaching Pilates, you’re likely to find her at a gallery, immersing herself in all things creative.
