I’ve been struggling with my back for many years, having visited many physios, osteopaths and chiropractors, most of who only treated the symptoms. Jo was the first physiotherapist to focus on the potential route causes, creating specific exercise routines to help strengthen my core, as part of my rehabilitation treatment program, and as a longer term preventative measure, by helping me to understand and establish good practice for the future.
Highly recommended!

I had been informed by my spinal surgeon that Pilates is the best possible exercise for building up core body strength and diminishing back pain.
l have found in Jo a superb instructor. She was recommended to me by a friend.
Being also a registered physiotherapist Jo is able to advise clients in the classes of any adaptations of the Pilates exercises needed to accommodate conditions such as osteoporosis.
TJo inspires everyone in the class to work to the best of their best ability whilst also making the class fun.
Jo is extremely personable. I recommend her for both individual and class sessions.

Thank you Jo for your well presented and easy to follow Pilates Classes. I have been doing them regularly since lock-down and they have certainly helped keep me supple and fit. Your references to peaches, blueberries, meringues and Maltesers is lovely and really helps me think about my posture! I look forward to the time when we can all be together again in Slindon Village Hall.

As someone who has never been particularly keen on exercise, I can thoroughly recommend Jo’s classes. She makes them interesting and varied so I always want to go, do my best but never feel under any pressure to do more than my (ageing) body is capable of. As for her videos during lockdown, they have kept me going and kept me sane.

‘Jo’s classes are welcoming and inclusive for all levels of student. She is able to blend key Pilates principles with her experience as a practising physiotherapist, whilst delivering instruction using the internationally renowned research-based APPI framework. Jo’s classes are well planned, with an easy to follow structure. Each session is varied, as she provides students with different equipment to enhance the range of movement possible and improve their overall flexibility.
Jo is an encouraging teacher, who motivates her students to improve their own personal goals, whilst nurturing a supportive and enjoyable community for them to feel part of.’

Being a trained Physio Jo is able to “tweak” the sessions to suit the individual and despite various joint and back problems, thanks to the pilates, I am able to continue with my very active lifestyle. Highly recommended!!’.
