About Me
I worked for the NHS for 9 years developing an interest in Neurology before spending a further 9 years teaching at The University of Birmingham. I now work seeing patients in their homes and in local clinics, as well as teaching Pilates. I like the variety of teaching chair Pilates but also HIIT Pilates.
Pilates has played a key role in my rehab following major knee surgery. I love running and Pilates has helped me work towards 5k, 10k and my first ½ marathon in Warwick, March 2019. This has been both a physical and psychological battle won after over 20 years of knee instability.
I have two teenagers so family time is important to me. I help run a local Girl Guide unit and enjoy crafting and making things when I get a moment
