HI, I’M VICTORIA!

I am so pleased you are here! This page will give you an insight into who I am, my background and my style of teaching.

Dive right in…

I’m a 33 year old, Norwich born movement lover with an obsession on the human body!

I am qualified in Dance & Performing Arts and the Classical Pilates Method.

Before I started teaching Pilates here in Norwich I trained as a professional dancer, which laid the foundations for understanding how our gorgeous bodies can really move.

Whilst away on dance contracts I found Pilates and fell in love!

Paired with my knowledge of dance and movement, Pilates complimented what I was hoping to achieve within my own body, and I knew it would be something I would one day want to explore further and share.

Once I gave up dancing I moved back to my home town of Norwich and began training in Pilates Matwork with Body Control Pilates, a contemporary training provider.

After a few years teaching Pilates Matwork around Norwich I felt that something was missing from my style of teaching, so I decided to go back to training. This time with a Classical Pilates programme, where I have since delved into the original method giving me the scope to teach not only Matwork but the Classical method on all Apparatus - just as Mr Pilates designed it! I took up a fully comprehensive classical qualification with Pi Studios in London, and am now proud to teach the Classical Pilates Method.

My passion is deeply rooted in understanding, appreciating and celebrating how marvellous our bodies are daily! In each class I will use the Classical Pilates method (along with my dance training if joining a Barre class!) to guide you through movement that will help you to build deeper strength, greater control and ultimately a body you feel amazing in!

In my eyes confidence comes from within and Pilates is the perfect partner to build that foundation.

Come and explore with me, whether that’s in person in Norwich or online through my On Demand.

I can’t wait to meet you!

THE METHOD

“The whole country, the whole world, should be doing my exercises. They’d be happier.” - Joseph Pilates

Joseph Pilates created his method over 100 years ago and it has stood the test of time; being as intrinsically vital today as it was back then.

The method is a complete system of exercises that are designed to reverse the effects of poor daily habits and improve vitality, strength and overall wellbeing in all it’s participants.

I work with the Classical Pilates method to help you to ultimately FEEL better within your body. Though other benefits such as improved posture, greater control and strength, more efficient breathing, increased confidence (to name but a few) will be achieved also!

Each class will get your body moving as a whole, no joint or muscle will be left behind! With each exercise designed to challenge, strengthen and lengthen your entire body.

Focus will be given to HOW you are moving and not just WHAT is moving; allowing you to connect your mind and body for greater mastery over your movement that will be unmistakably reflected in the way you walk, work and play.

Within each class I will guide you through the method using demonstration, hands on corrections and verbal cues to allow you the best possible chance to connect and understand not only the method but also how your body feels.

Pilates really is for every BODY and I can’t wait for you to begin your journey!
