Amy’s Reformer Pilates sessions are designed to help you build strength, improve mobility and move with more confidence. With Amy’s osteopathic background, sessions are supportive, considered and tailored to your body.
Reformer Pilates uses a spring-based machine called a reformer to support and challenge your body through controlled, low-impact movement. The springs can be adjusted, so exercises can be made easier or harder to suit you.
It is not only for people who already exercise. The reformer gives support where you need it, which often makes it a comfortable place to start if you are new to movement, returning after a break, or working around stiffness or discomfort.
Sessions focus on strength, posture, mobility, control and confidence in how you move.
Teaching Reformer Pilates was a natural next step for Amy. It lets her help people build strength safely, move better and understand their own bodies, using the same knowledge she draws on in clinic.
Amy is a registered osteopath, so every session is informed by a clinical understanding of the body.
Amy works with movement mechanics and rehabilitation every day, and brings that experience onto the reformer.
Sessions are designed to meet you where you are, with clear guidance and safe, steady progression.
Sessions are kept supportive and attentive, with time to check technique and adjust exercises as you go.
Amy will guide you through each movement, explain what it is for and adapt the springs or the exercise so it works for your body. Progression is steady and deliberate, so you build strength and confidence without being pushed beyond what feels right.
