HOW IT STARTED
Lizzie spent the first 25 years of her life competing in high-level sport, notably; Modern Pentathlon, Three Day Eventing, Ultra marathons, Marathons, and Half Marathons. Like so many other high-performing athletes, Lizzie’s sporting career was sometimes found navigating injury, notably a serious back injury from her early teens. This led her to explore ways to rehabilitate, prevent and mitigate the long-term impact of sporting-injuries. And what did she find? Well, pilates of course! And she is still surgery free with spondylolysis (spinal fracture).
​
Pilates has enabled Lizzie to live a physically fulfilling life. So much so, she has a passion to share this knowledge and empower others.
​​
Lizzie shares Joseph Pilates vision. She believes that functional physical fitness is the backbone, the support-structure, which enables us to withstand the daily-demands of life; whether that be aspiring to athletic goals, sitting in an office chair 40 hours a week, running the marathon or running for the no.40 bus.
​
Lizzie continues to progress her work through multiple qualifications in the area of rehabilitation and injury recovery. She has multiple successful clients with hip/knee/shoulder replacements, postnatal prolapse/abdominal diastastis, back pains… and many more. She is looked to as an expert in the local area, working with physios and women’s health physios to support the programmes of many clients.
