Meet Kerry
Pilates Instructor & Crafts Facilitator
Hi, I’m Kerry and thanks to Leanne and Mobilates, a long-held ambition and a wonderful training school, I’m a Pilates teacher with a level three Pilates teaching diploma.
Like many of you, I came to Pilates through injury. For me, it was postnatal joint and tendon issues, plus I have lived with migraine from a young age. I’ve always loved fitness classes from aerobics to Zumba and dance but in my 30s my body started to struggle and injuries became more frequent. So I tried my first Pilates class and I’ve been feeling the benefits ever since! My body has become stronger and more resilient so although I still have joint and tendon challenges, Pilates keeps me supported and active. In my 50s, Pilates is helping me through all the hormonal and physical changes and I can’t even imagine a time in my life when I’m not practising Pilates regularly!
I teach Mobilates Pilates classes alongside Leanne both online and in person. I love that it’s not just your physical body that benefits, but your mental well-being too. When I’m teaching Pilates I encourage you to be in the here and now, concentrating on what your body needs and how it feels and moves. You’ve created this time for yourself and whatever your challenges, you’re going to feel the benefits.
