She has worked as an instructor in a clinical setting and also teaches group reformer and matwork.

She quickly realised the benefits of the method, both physically and mentally and so decided she would make it her career. She studied with the highly regarded National Pilates Training.
Jess is passionate about how Pilates provides a deeper intention and meaning to exercise and allows you to shut the outside world off during practice and devote time to nourish your body.
She also enjoys connecting with clients and has a genuine passion for helping them find enjoyment through movement by continuously building strength, enhanced flexibility and coordination.

Rachel
Rachael adores all things fashion, fitness and fun. After carrying some injuries from junior sports days and a particularly difficult second pregnancy with not one but two unplanned C-sections, things took a toll on Rachael’s core and lower back. Nothing had worked until she started her Pilates journey, building back her core and back strength.
Astounded at the results and now being in the best shape of her life in her early 50s, Rachael would love nothing more than to share with you all the incredible things that Pilates can do for you. Rachael hopes to see you in the studio!
All these years no one has managed to help me. when I started with Arjan I straight away started seeing results and progression. I am now able to do more things in life, I feel stronger and I'm not in much pain.
I am going to keep seeing him as I see it will be of benefit in the future. The place beautiful and I feel like I'm surrounded with positive energy along with Arjan's wonderful personality!
He is the only person I trust to really help me heal from injuries or issues. He also is very knowledgeable about piriformis syndrome and was a huge part in helping me manange my symptoms.
Thank you Arjan for all your help over the years!
I highly recommend anyone wanting to try reformer pilates, or anyone at any level looking for a change, to try Liv’s classes.
Each time I see him he attends to all my issues and I feel my quality of life has improved tremendously and will continue to be of benefit in the future.
In the past all of the other physiotherapists I have seen, there was no progress or results, but immediately after my first session with Arjan knew that there was going to be light at the end of tunnel. He's a miracle worker!
You can tell he’s worked at the highest level, but he explains everything clearly and makes you feel confident in the process. I’ve seen great improvements and feel stronger, more mobile, and more confident in my body.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Arjan to anyone needing physiotherapy or performance-based rehab.
After this session, my nerve sensation has returned, and the pins and needles feeling has mostly gone away, leaving me feeling much better overall.
Thank you, Arjan and the team!
