About Amanda

I have studied Pilates over the last 20 years, and become fascinated by the mind and body connection, linking relaxation, improved concentration, moving well and "feeling good" following exercise.

Through initially working as a Marketing Manager I found Pilates helped relaxation and improved concentration leading to better results at work.
 
Pilates has improved horse riding skills, being more body aware when training my horses for dressage makes a massive different to the results we can achieve. 

After training my last horse to compete to Medium dressage and now developing a youngster, balance, mobility and core strength are even more important for success. The more control I gain over my body, the better our results. 

I get excited about coaching and developing individuals, helping them identify and achieve goals to reach their full potential.
