Client Testimonials

The quality of the teaching is excellent. Lucy is really clear and comprehensive in her instruction and able to run mixed classes that clearly suit beginners and very experienced people. In every class she carefully advises people with back problems etc about what to do and what not to do. She is always positive and subtle in helping you improve. An added bonus is that she Is a really nice person.

John Ryder

Lucy is an excellent teacher. I have been at her classes for over 10 years. She has expert knowledge from continually updating her practice. She accommodates all levels and differing needs. She is friendly, patient, kind and conscientious.

Ann Howard

I feel so lucky to have found Lucy, going to Pilates each week is a pleasure and never feels like a chore. Lucy is such a calm and knowledgeable teacher, you always feel like you're in good hands! She provides different levels to suit every person in the class so anyone can join in. Her classes are friendly and good for you - what more could you want!!

Ellen Franklin

My wife & I have attended Lucy's pilates classes for over 4 years - she is a kind, patient teacher who helps us improve our technique and provides a calm space in our busy lives.

Stuart Bentley

I have been doing pilates with Lucy for a long time and am so lucky to have found such a brilliant instructor. Lucy takes the time to get to know you (and your injuries!), so whatever you do is safe, but at the same time pushes you to improve strength and flexibility. She's great. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Thanks Lucy!

Tracey Dudley

I've been doing classes with Lucy for over 10 years. When I was working I found them a good way to unwind after a difficult day.  When I retired, they helped to keep me mobile but also bring peace and focus to my week. Classes are presented in a light, but professional way and you will be encouraged to work at your own pace and given options if you have any injuries.
