Hello! My name is Lucy Filce, I have been practicing Pilates since 2000 & qualified as a teacher in 2007. My journey has taught me that Pilates heals. It is a wonderful system of therapeutic exercises that I have seen recover people from their pain. In 2007 I was using Pilates for fitness; teaching group classes with the aim to get strong & flexible. As the years have passed I have found that the majority of my attendees come for rehabilitation. Many individuals are recommended to come by their physiotherapists, Osteopaths & Chiropractors. The majority of them have back pain of some description including slipped discs & sciatica. I also see a lot of participants who are recovering from hip & knee replacements. As I came into to more contact with these conditions I trained as GP Exercise on Referral specialist in 2022. I have also been keeping in touch with the latest practices in knee, hip, foot, spinal and shoulder surgery by attending regular educational lectures with the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Birmingham and Birmingham Knee and Shoulder Clinic since 2017.
I teach regular group classes for fitness and I also teach group classes for rehabilitation.
I do one to one training for fitness, rehab and GP Exercise on Referral.
I assess postural alignment and prescribe exercise for correcting misalignments.
I also offer weekly recorded classes for you to do at home in your own time.
I provide professional, certified group classes and individual programs designed to help you reach and maintain your fitness goals and live a pain free life. Check out my offerings and choose one suitable to your needs and do get in touch personally if you want to discuss anything.
