Hello, I’m Steph!

I’m a passionate Pilates teacher who has been teaching matwork classes around Surrey and Berkshire since 2016. I first discovered Pilates in my early twenties after suffering chronic back pain that wasn’t getting any better with medical treatment.

Through regular practice I experienced first-hand the benefits Pilates can bring both mentally and physically. The mental bit I believe is as important as the physical especially when I hear so often that the hour someone spends in my class is the only time they get for themselves in a week.

I have a scientific background and my thirst for knowledge means my teaching is constantly evolving and improving. No class is ever the same and my primary aim is to make sure people walk out of a class standing taller and feeling much better than when they walked in.

If you would like to try one of my friendly and inclusive classes please do get in touch. Your first class is free to see if it’s right for you :)

I’ve been doing Steph’s Pilates classes for several years, initially in person but more recently online. It makes little difference - she still manages to make you feel that you’re in the same room. Her classes never feel routine. Instead, they’re fun, efficient, educational and manageably stretching, lifting you out of the regular humdrum of life. At the end of the hour your body feels better, you’re in a better mood, you’ve learned something new, and you’ve achieved something worthwhile. Steph has a positive, engaging and cheerful manner. She always finds ways to be encouraging to the class in general, pushing those who can a little further while never making anyone feel under pressure. With her eagle eye, she’s also great at spotting things that any one of us is doing well or could do better (as well as a nice way of saying so). She generates a fantastic atmosphere in the class. It’s an hour very well spent. It's a course that never flags. Very highly recommended.

I have been attending Steph's classes since the start of the pandemic, and my body is now a firm addict. We run an events business which entails quite a bit of lifting and carrying so I need to stay supple and strong. The beauty of Steph's classes is that she tailors the class to your ability with 3 different options to most moves coupled with a detailed description of which muscles you need to engage as well as when to breathe into each move. As a result, I have an intense workout within the bounds of what my body is capable of doing at that class. As I have progressed my body has become more flexible and strong without injury. I also regard the class as a form of meditation, as you have to focus entirely on what your mind and body is telling you. Love Monday evenings!

I love my weekly Pilates classes with Steph; she is an excellent instructor, who ensures all abilities get the most out of each lesson. Steph is experienced and knowledgeable and checks we perform exercises to help our balance, posture, strength and flexibility safely. Steph is also the loveliest person ever! 🙂
