Hi, I’m Dawn
I offer private Pilates coaching, combined with biomechanics, to individuals and pairs from my home in Leominster, Herefordshire, with Specific focus on :
➡️ Pilates for Complete Beginners
➡️ Back Pain Management
➡️ Remedial Exercise & GP Referrals
➡️ Balance & Falls prevention
➡️ Strength & Bone Health
➡️ Menopause Health & Fitness
Would you like to learn Pilates in a relaxed environment, at your own pace?
Are you looking for an exercise programme to help with a specific injury or movement problem, which requires one to one coaching, as opposed to a general class workout?
Would you like to be sure you’re doing the most effective exercises for your body, based on assessment?
Then you’re in the right place!
“My pilates journey started in 2010 when I was recovering from a spinal injury. The results on both my physical and mental health at the time, were so significant that, a year on I swapped my work in gardening, to train to teach this effective form of exercise. I’ve been teaching classes, delivering back health workshops, working 121 and giving talks to community groups for the last 13 years and witnessed women and men of all ages improve their quality of movement with consistent Pilates practice.”
Whether you are recovering from injury or simply wanting to maintain healthy movement as you age, a personal Pilates programme provides the tools and knowledge, to keep you moving freely.
Why not get in touch to discuss your requirements and how Pilates can benefit you?
How does it work?
- We start with an initial assessment/ Consultation and from the results of that, build an exercise programme based on your biomechanics and muscle imbalances. It takes the guess work out of exercise, so that you know exactly which moves are going to bring about improved quality of movement for you, in the fastest time.
- Follow up videos are provided so you won’t need to remember what you’ve learned in session , as it’s all in the video as a reminder to support your practise at home. My clients tell me they find the videos hugely helpful!
- One to one sessions are also a good choice if you are a beginner and want to prepare for joining a pilates class in the future, or if you already have some previous Pilates experience and just need a quick revision course. Either way I’ll help you gain the confidence to join a class with a good understanding of the moves.
- For those who like to practise mostly at home but want some 121 coaching to be confident with technique, then my 4 week beginners programme could suit you:-
Venue–all the comforts of home!
Sessions are held in a relaxed, comfortable space in my home in Leominster, where mats and equipment are provided. We work at a level and pace that’s right for you , without pressure to keep up with a class , and plenty of chance to ask questions to deepen your understanding of pilates and your body.
For those not able to get to the mat, sessions can be adapted for standing or seated, with a focus on functional movement for everyday activities.
To arrange your first session, either email me – dawnarkell1967@gmail.com or give me a call on 07555 505316 and we’ll discuss your requirements.
I look forward to supporting your health and fitness goals and helping you to keep moving freely in life.
