✨ Meet Sue Small
Reformer Pilates Teacher

👋 A little about Sue
• 🎓 Sue retrained and qualified as a Level 3 Matwork Pilates Teacher in 2010, after 12 years working in environmental health, health & safety, and health promotion.
• 🧘 She went on to qualify as a Reformer Pilates Teacher in 2021.
• 💪 Sue’s passion for Pilates began after her first pregnancy in 2006, when she developed severe pelvic dysfunction. Pilates helped her rebuild her core strength and confidence in exercise — so much so that she’s since completed 12 marathons, plus countless half-marathons and 10Ks!

💡 What Sue loves most about teaching Pilates & Reformer:
Sue loves getting to know her clients and seeing their progress — especially when they’ve come from a place of very little movement. She also loves their banter… especially when they start telling her what they like (and don’t like!) 🤣

🎉 Fun fact:
Sue loves cold water swimming!

💛 Sue is here to motivate, support, challenge, and encourage you every step of the way — bringing expertise, energy, and a genuine passion for helping you move better.

✨ Meet Ellen ✨
Role: Physiotherapist & Pilates Instructor

👋 A little about Ellen:
🎓 Ellen graduated from the University of Cumbria (2021) with a BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy, and has since worked across the NHS, private practice, and with professional and local sports teams — even spending time in Australia, where she trained as a Pilates and Reformer Instructor with APPI to help maximise rehabilitation outcomes.

💪 A true lover of all things sport, Ellen is passionate about strength training and has dabbled in Hyrox and CrossFit. You’ll often find her on or beside a pitch, in the studio, or out hiking in her spare time.

Having been involved in sport from a young age, exercise has always been a huge part of her life — though, like anyone, she’s faced injuries and dips in motivation. “Chatting with someone always helps keep me accountable,” she says.

💡 What Ellen loves most about teaching Pilates:

“I love how Pilates offers something for everyone — no matter your age, ability, or background. Seeing people develop skills they never thought they could is the best part!
And of course… I love everyone’s reactions when I mention lunges or planks!” 😄

🎉 Fun fact: I was an Irish dancer from the ages of 6 through to 21 — it’s where my love of movement really began! 🇮🇪💃

💛 Ellen’s here to support you every step of the way — bringing expertise, energy, and a genuine passion for helping you move better.

➡️ Come say hi to Ellen in the studio — she can’t wait to welcome you to your next class!
