Hi, I'm Angela, a dedicated student & teacher of the Traditional Pilates Method. I have a background in sports; playing football & mountain biking & a BSc Sport & Exercise Science Degree. I have 22 years experience teaching in the fitness, health & lifelong learning sectors. I have been teaching Pilates comprehensively across the studio apparatus since 2017 having trained with Don Mcpherson at Classical Pilates UK in Scotland & completed my apprenticeship with Rebecca Leary at Pembrokeshire Pilates in Wales between 2017-2020.

​

Because it was important to me to get as close as possible to the original source of Authentic Pilates, I furthered my career between 2022 and 2024 & undertook The New York Pilates Studio® Teacher Training Program- the oldest professional training programme in the world (lineage of Romana Kryzanowska).

 

My commutes to America have taken me to Joseph Pilates original New York Pilates Studio space on 939 8th Avenue & Joseph Pilates home studio in Beckett, Massachusetts, USA. I attended The Pilates at the Pillow conference in Massachusetts in Spring 2022 & Autumn 2023- at Jacob's Pillow; where Joseph Pilates is documented teaching his mat classes in archival film footage. I was able to train in Joseph Pilates original 34 in 34 mat work & archival standing mat work.

 

I am committed to offering quality & dedicated Authentic Classical Pilates teaching in Wales. I work with professional & recreational athletes as well as everyday people wanting to use Pilates to simply live their best life. I have lots of experience working with people pre/ post hip & knee surgery, people with neurological conditions; MS & Parkinson's Disease & people with back pain. Pilates is for everybody & will meet you where you are. I look forward to working with you.
