Summary

I am a dedicated Pilates Instructor comfortable leading multiple classes each week on flexible schedule. I am a reliable and driven professional with advanced leadership and customer relations skills. I have recently qualified as a Reformer Pilates Instructor however I have had previous experience working in club and private client environments in the UK before my children were born. After qualifying earlier this year, I have been working along side the Feels Pilates instructors (in Avalon) to refine my skills and am now looking to bulk out my classes. I am fully insured and have my first aid certificate.
