She taught me how to control different muscles to tone certain parts of my body and ensured I was using the correct techniques to avoid injuring myself. During the group classes, Kate would keep a close eye on everyone to make sure they were receiving maximum benefit from the exercise, and would work us all at a pace she knew we could manage. Although her classes were tough, I felt myself getting stronger and fitter and could visibly see a difference in my body; my muscles had tone and definition after only a few weeks.

Kate is an excellent judge of a person’s strength, she is patient and listens to your concerns, she is never patronising, and can tailor her exercises to focus on increasing your strength where you need it the most – even if you have a prior injury. She uses a variety of equipment, so her classes were always fun and different. The thing I miss the most about Kate’s classes, is the motivation she gave me (and all of us in the group) to keep healthy, stay fit and work hard.

Kate is a beautiful, kind person who will always have your best interests at heart, and I sincerely recommend her services as a Pilates trainer."

"I began practicing Body Control Pilates with Kate around ten months after the birth of my third baby and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We began with two sessions a week and after three months, I felt like my core strength and flexibility was improving immensely. Kate’s calm teaching style and comprehensive knowledge of post-natal Pilates helped me considerably; she has even motivated me to become a Pilates’ instructor myself!

I was most impressed by Kate’s ability to devise a personal, tailored programme to suit my personal needs and she always made me feel calm and at ease. Kate is an excellent practitioner of Pilates training and I am so looking forward to being part of her classes again in the U.K."
