As we emerge out of regulations and restrictions, it brings new creativity and feelings for us all. I am passionate about raising the standard of movement and rehabilitation in the NW. Thank-you to all clients, colleagues and staff who have endured the ride of Covid 19 and have stuck with the studios or my social media posts. Like everyone and all businesses, we face many new challenges. But this is where the real dedication, commitment, perseverance and patience lies.
It’s easy to give up when things get tough. Everyone wants to see the silver lining in their body, bank balance and lives, but few are willing to go through the tough times and take the rough with the smooth.
I am passionate in creating real teachers with real skills and clients with new leases of life. This can only develop slowly over a period of time. Everyone wants the blackbelt, but few are willing to put in the reps, sets and loads.
I am excited to be running a two-year apprenticeship for Pilates teacher training. This runs in conjunction with M-bodies. This is ideal for teachers who are level 3 mat-work certified and want to add another string to their bow or perhaps a home studio. Having done both short teacher trainings and long teacher trainings, I feel the best are always done over a period of time as we can really develop and fine tune our skills. Attention to detail and technique are essential. You can have the best acrobatic performer as a teacher, but if the ability is not there to modify the exercise for the client in front of them, that really is not teaching.
Pictured above is my first graduate Gemma who is now induction reformer and tower certified. Gemma will be teaching on Wednesday evenings and Friday mornings.

Nisha is a certified Chek practitioner and holistic lifestyle coach.Her journey started when a visiting Laban teacher introduced her to Pilates at Dance College during her first year. It's effects were forgotten but she then re discovered Pilates through Michael King eleven years later whilst running her dance school. Her background spans over 25 years with formal training in classical ballet, modern dance, tap, national choreography, stage production and theatre. Her formation includes Pilates, Thai bodywork, Yoga, GYROTONIC, GYROKINESIS, Garuda and anatomical studies. Her particular interest is fascia, and the connective lines and movement patterns that allow a full moving structure rather than the isolation of bones and muscles. Her fascination with questioning the traditions of modern medicine and fascination with searching for meaningful answers has taken her in many different directions and has offered her an abundance of opportunities gaining a wealth of knowledge. “I tried many movement modalities and extended my search after experiencing fascia, because of its simplicity in movement. Quickly, I noticed my own body changing as well as the bodies of my own clients. In the last 25 years of teaching I’ve developed a workout unique to Yoga Anatomy". Throughout her studies Nisha has done numerous dissections with Julian Baker and Cery Davies and has the opportunity to take lectures and courses from James de Silva, Robert Schleip, Joanne Avisons, Tom Myers, Matt Wallden, Emma Lane, Gary Carter, Paul Chek, Dan Hellman, Peter Blackaby plus many many more Nisha's teaching method promotes reflective self-discovery and provides the requirements to integrate a shift in consciousness for attaining individual goals. She maintains that an attitude of compassion, consistency and joyous humor are excellent components to growth and expanded potential. She welcomes all level of movers from the beginner to the seasoned athlete who have a desire to increase their skill potential, also teachers and students. Her specialties include assisting post rehabilitative individuals, injury prevention for dancers and athletes and advanced movement programs.
