Using my knowledge and practical skills as a Physiotherapist along with my experience as an endurance athlete, I am excited to teach Pilates classes in central Christchurch.
Pilates uses a functional exercise approach to train strength, flexibility and efficient movement patterns.
Whether you are an active person, wanting to enhance your sporting performance or prevent injuries from keeping you sidelined from doing what you love, then Pilates will be a great supplement to an active lifestyle or sporting routine.

Going from a complete beginner to being hooked, Fiona provides a safe and friendly environment. Adding pilates into my training programme is beneficial in more than just strength and injury prevention, it is also a great way to destress from work and focus on recovery. The sport specific class is great for focusing on single sided movements and I believe a huge factor in no running or kayaking injuries on build up to the coast to coast longest day event.

Pilates with Fiona for me is a way of life , as well as supporting my body. It enables me to strengthen mental focus by concentrating on Fiona's voice guiding us through a class. Approaching 60 with an auto immune deficiency called addisons and severe osteoporosis i knew it was important to find an exercise regime that helps me live the best of my life. Fiona teaches so much more than Pilates for my body , its a discipline and a tool to keep healthy and active and most of all strong of body and mind.
