Hello
I'm Sophie
Owner of Pilatestar.com
I'm a certified Body Control Pilates Teacher, Back4Good® Practitioner & Bone Health Specialist.
I love learning. My training as a Pilates teacher never ends, hence why I've continued my studies covering Low Back Pain, Older Persons, Pilates for Golfers, Level 4 Adaptations, Level 4 Movement, Intermediate & Advanced matwork. Workshops in Spine, Shoulder & Hips, Band, Foam Roller, Pilates Arc (that's just what I can remember!)
I am passionate about technique so whether you're a beginner or advanced client, I like to observe, correct, & ensure you're getting the most out of any movement. I am articulate & like to provide context behind the movements. I have a keen interest in working with people who suffer from back pain and people who are into physical fitness and/or love their sport.
Pilates Sessions Online - £40 per hour
I am based in Spain but I'm happy to work online with you, wherever you are in the world (pretty much!). I have a client that loves to travel, so I've enjoyed doing classes with him whilst he's been in Australia, New Zealand, Grand Turks & Caicos, Paris, Trinidad & Tobago! That's the beauty of working online. Despite your commitments, as long as you have space for a mat, and a laptop / tablet that you can 'angle', then you can take me wherever you go!
I usually start with a 30-45 mins free conversation to find out what brings you to pilates, and to find out if I can help. Thereafter, we'll do 1-2 sessions to help me work out how best to personalise the on-going lesson plans. We'll take on board your goals which could be around rehabilitation after surgery or injury; maintenance to be sure that your functionality continues; or performance which will be focused around mobility and strength training. Clients come to me with a whole range of conditions. If I don't know your particular one, I will do the research so I learn more about it, so I know how to help you. If you already work with a physio/osteopath/chiropractor, I am very happy to liaise with them to find out how I can assist further in your recovery.
Sessions will be varied. You'll never know what's coming next! I don't believe in generic programmes, it's all about finding those movements that allow you to reach your goal.

If you're just not sure..... the best thing to do is for us to speak over the phone, or over Zoom/Teams. That's the only way you're really going to know if we can work well together!
