Sarah
My career has been shaped by decades of hands-on teaching, advanced training and never standing still. I studied Ballet to degree level and trained as a teacher with the Royal Academy of Dance, before working with pioneers like Alan Herdman and studying extensively with world-class Pilates teachers.
My background gave me a deep understanding of biomechanics, rehabilitation and functional movement, which I bring into every class at SMK.
I've worked with every kind of body — from people managing pain or injury, to experienced movers refining their strength, control and alignment. That range keeps this work interesting.

Bedia
I came to Pilates to stay active, build strength and keep my flexibility while managing scoliosis. I find it essential for keeping my body in balance — it's made a real difference, I now live without the pain scoliosis used to bring.
I have an MSc in Chemical Engineering and spent years in pharmaceuticals, working as a Production Engineer and a Quality Assurance Specialist. But Pilates kept pulling at me until I turned my hobby into my career, training as a BASI Comprehensive graduate.
Away from the studio, I love singing and playing guitar. I bring that same energy and attention to detail into every class I teach.

Lisa
I found Pilates about 18 years ago, after ten years of treatment for a slipped disc I picked up while training as a dancer. It left me with real weakness in my lower back — Pilates was what built my strength and mobility back up, and gave me pain-free days for the first time in years.
I'd spent over 20 years in advertising and fashion before I retrained as a Pilates instructor with BASI Pilates UK in Wimbledon. What I love about teaching is the people — watching someone else feel what Pilates did for me, physically and mentally, and knowing I helped get them there.
I'm also an illustrator. These days I get to bring both passions together.

Phillippa
I started Pilates in 2016, after having my children, to rebuild my strength and balance. Regular practice changed things I hadn't expected – my flexibility, posture, strength, how I felt. Those changes pushed me to train as a teacher with BASI Pilates in Wimbledon. I love helping clients build confidence in their bodies and reach their goals – my classes are encouraging, and all about mindful, precise movement.
I work at the studio on a Monday and teach alongside Sarah on Tuesdays, it's a friendly, welcoming environment. Outside that, you'll find me walking the Surrey Hills with my family and dogs.
