Pilates with Sam

Build Strength, Find Balance, Feel Better – Pilates for Every Body

ABOUT
Hi, I’m Sam! After years in the fast-paced world of office life as an Executive Assistant, my life took a beautiful turn when I had my daughter. It was during this new chapter that I discovered Pilates. It started as a much-needed escape and quickly grew into a passion that transformed my life.

Fitness has always been part of my story but Pilates brought me a new kind of strength, focus and sense of accomplishment. Now, I’m so excited to share that joy with you!

I'm HFE qualified in Mat Pilates, Reformer Pilates and Pre / Post Natal.

Pre/Postnatal
I’ve recently qualified in pre & postnatal Pilates and will be adding two new classes to the timetable: a dedicated Prenatal Pilates class to support you through pregnancy and a Postnatal Baby & Me class to help you gently rebuild strength and reconnect with your body while bonding with your baby.

With a maximum of 4 people per session, I’m able to offer personalised support to ensure you feel safe, confident, and empowered at every stage of your journey. Whether you're preparing for birth or easing back into movement postnatally, each class is tailored to suit your needs and energy levels.

If you’re interested in joining, please register your interest and let me know what days/times you'd love to see these classes on the timetable. You ​must have had sign off from your doctor if ​postnatal.

I spoke to Sam regarding some 1:1 sessions following some health issues. I was nervous about going classes Sam encouraged me to start with 30 minute 1:1 sessions with her and was a very good listener. Sam is a calm instructor and helped me overcome my inexperience with Pilates and have faith in my next steps which for me have been massive steps. She was very understanding and has given me confidence to continue with her. Having been a gym member I was not a lover of the gym experience but Sam's sessions have been researched and well planned giving me confidence at a much needed time. I would certainly recommend Sam snd look forward to my sessions with her.

I really enjoy taking pilates classes from Sam because she is very encouraging and personalises our lessons in a way that caters to our current abilities while helping us to improve our flexibility. Since starting my pilates sessions, I have noticed an improvement in my shoulder pains and the sessions are local and convenient for me. I would definitely recommend!

F.A.Q

Do I need to bring any equipment with me?

No, I will provide you with a mat, yoga blocks and small equipment should we need it.

I'm a beginner, can I still join your class?

I welcome all abilities to my classes, I work on layering my classes so you can progress the movement as much as your body allows. I will always modify the movements as well to help maintain alignment. 

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable, form fitting clothing that allows you to move freely. I would also recommend wearing grip socks over normal socks to help with stability on the mat.

Will Pilates help with my back pain?

Yes, Pilates can help with back pain by strengthening the core muscles, which are important for supporting the spine. It's always a good idea to check with a healthcare professional before starting Pilates if you have an injury.
