Hi there!

I'm Lizzie - mum of three, powered by coffee, trying to stay healthy (and awake) one chaotic day at a time.

I have a Matwork Level 3 Certification from Body Control Pilates - Europe’s leading Pilates organisation. I am also qualified to teach Pre & Postnatal Pilates and Children & Adolescents Pilates.

After having 3 children all via c-section I used Pilates to heal my body, to build up my strength and to have some time to focus on me (…escape from the children) and now I can’t wait to share the benefits with you.

For me, Pilates is entirely restorative. Its gentle but powerful approach make it the perfect activity for all ages and abilities.

If you have any questions please email me, I am more than happy to help.

Let’s move, laugh, stretch, and feel good, together.

See you on the mat!

FAQ’s

Pilates is a low-impact form of exercise that focuses on core strength, flexibility, posture, and body awareness. It’s suitable for all fitness levels and can be adapted to suit individual needs.
Not at all! Our classes are beginner-friendly, and modifications are always offered. Everyone is welcome, whether it’s your first time or you’ve been practicing for years.
Just yourself, a water bottle, and a mat if you have one. We provide all necessary props (like bands, balls, and blocks), but feel free to bring your own.
Wear comfortable, stretchy clothing that allows you to move freely. Barefoot or grippy socks are best - no trainers needed.
Absolutely! Pilates can be incredible for the pre & postpartum period as long as you are in the correct class.

If you are pregnant (post 16 weeks) please join my prenatal class on a Thursday evening.

If you are postnatal and have had your 6 week check please join my Mum and Baby class at 10am on a Monday or Thursday morning!
Any questions please let me know.
This completely depends on your individual goal and I can discuss this with you when you book your first session.
I am not trained in rehab Pilates so if you have a new injury then I would direct you to a physio but if you have ongoing niggles then Pilates can definitely support you with this. We would need to speak about what you’re struggling with prior to you booking a group class.
No! Flexibility is something we work on in class, not a requirement to start. Pilates is for every body.

"I love Pilates with Lizzie! It feels so good to be able to get back into exercise with support from someone so knowledgeable about how to promote healing of the body post baby, and across the weeks I have felt by body get stronger. My little girl loves playing and cuddles with Lizzie, and I get the time to workout!"

"I’ve been attending postnatal Pilates with my baby girl at Pilates by Lizzie, and it has been absolutely amazing. The studio is always clean and welcoming, and Lizzie herself is so lovely, kind, and genuinely supportive. She creates such a safe, comfortable space for new mums, and I always leave feeling empowered, informed, and cared for. Her knowledge and expertise really shine through in every session. I’m so grateful to have found this class, I would highly recommend to any new mum looking to rebuild strength and confidence."

Erin Wilkes
"Love Lizzie’s pilates classes for mum and baby! Lizzie is a lovely instructor and her classes are in a super relaxed and friendly environment - baby can join you on your mat so you can interact with them at the same time or you can slip off to feed, change etc. Lizzie also brings along a selection of toys for them to play with. The movements are gentle and at your own pace so perfect for postpartum and it’s a great way to meet other mums too!"
