MEET GEORGE
Hi, I'm George! I've been teaching Pilates for over 8 years.
I am passionate about movement and Pilates and I am fascinated by the body. I believe in the importance of finding the fun in movement - it should be enjoyable and make you feel good.
​
I came to Pilates after a back injury and I've been hooked ever since. I love that no matter what your level, beginner or advanced, there is always more to find from Pilates exercises. For me the precision and concentration required provides a constant challenge.
I am a fully qualified matwork teacher and also hold qualifications in Pre and Post Natal Pilates, Pilates Barre, Small Equipment. I undertake regular CPD with a variety of different providers.
CLASSES

SO WHAT IS PILATES?
The principles of Pilates are concentration, precision, flow, control, breathing, alignment, centering, coordination, stamina... Created by Joseph Pilates in the 1920s, the original matwork programme is a flowing sequence of 34 exercises.
My teaching style draws from both Classical and Modern approaches; it nods to the original 34 exercises with an awareness of the stresses of 21st Century life on our bodies and the need to move functionally through our daily life.
My classes are designed to lengthen and strengthen your body. I aim to equip my clients with the knowledge and skills to move functionally with freedom and joy both at class and out in the real world!

and not at its mercy"
I think I may be one of George's oldest pupils. I have been doing the classes for a number of years, and enjoy them very much. George is wonderful and very patient. The gentle class which I do is fabulous. I have made lovely friends. I really look forward to them. Thank you George
I thoroughly enjoy By George Pilates. The sessions suit me perfectly and I am improving my strength in small increments every week. I can’t recommend George enough - excellent teacher!
George is an excellent teacher. Her classes are instructive, informative and amusing (thanks to her great sense of humour). She's very attentive to ensuring you're using your body correctly and it's amazing how many exercises she gets through in a session! Highly recommended.
I always feel better after Pilates. It's uplifting and fun. Plus I always have a lovely feeling of being 'in my body' when we have finished.
George is very professional and talks us through every move with explanations of what parts of our body we are using for each exercise and why, explaining what we should be feeling and where on the body. I would highly recommend joining a class as everyone is so friendly and I feel so much better in mind, body and fitness.
