Hi, I’m Sophie, the yoga instructor here at Pivot!

I’m so happy you’re here and can’t wait to share my love of movement and mindfulness with you in matwork.

Through my Ashtanga practice, I discovered that the stories we tell ourselves are the ones that say “I can’t” are almost always wrong. My goal is to help you prove those stories wrong too, one breath and one pose at a time.

In my classes, I love creating a supportive space where you can build strength, courage and confidence from the ground up.

My specialty (and absolute joy!) is inversions. Helping our clients realise that being upside down can actually help you see yourself and your world in a whole new way.

My favourite posture? A handstand! I never thought I’d be able to do one and that journey has taught me so much about patience, trust and the power of practice.

When I’m not on the mat, you’ll find me in the gym, lifting weights or spending time with my three amazing children which are my biggest inspiration to keep following my dreams and showing them what’s possible.

If you’re curious about yoga, want to build strength and confidence or just need a little time for you, I’d love to practice together. Come say hi after class or reach out if you have any questions!

I can’t wait to meet you all and share this journey with you.

With love
Sophie 🤍

Sometimes, you just need a space that’s quiet, focused, and completely yours.

Our Reformer Induction Course offers exactly that a supportive, small group experience designed to help you feel confident and comfortable on the Reformer.

Across a series of sessions, you’ll learn the fundamentals, understand how to move safely and effectively, and build strength in a way that feels good for your body.

Whether you’re new to Pilates, returning after a break or simply want to move with more confidence before joining regular classes, this is the perfect place to start.

And if you’ve been wanting to try something meaningful and fun! with a friend, you can join the same course together, a great way to move, laugh and support each other.

Curious if this could be the reset you’ve been needing? DM us with REFORMER to find out more and link to book or head to our bio.

A lot of clients are surprised when we tell them this...

Your tension headache won’t disappear with painkillers, caffeine or a bit of rest because those only treat the symptoms.

Most people think tension headaches start in the head. But more often than not, they start in the body.

Tight shoulders, a stiff neck or clenching your jaw these are some of the most common causes we see. And research backs it up. Studies show that muscle tension in these areas is a major contributor to ongoing headaches.

At Pivot, we don’t just treat the pain we focus on what’s causing it.

Using proven physiotherapy techniques, we combine hands-on treatment, posture support, and simple movement strategies all tailored to your body and your lifestyle.

We also understand how draining it is to live with constant headaches. That’s why we lead with empathy, take the time to listen, and support you every step of the way.

We’ve helped countless clients break the cycle and the difference? Truly life changing.

If you’re ready to stop masking the pain and start feeling better, DM HEADACHE to book your first session.

Contrary to all those photos of Joseph Pilates pushing people into stretches…

I would never force a movement or a nerve stretch.

Hands-on work isn’t about control it’s about communication. Touch helps someone understand where they are in space, how their body is responding, and what true movement feels like.

When you push through the body’s natural protective mechanisms, you’re not “deepening” the stretch you’re overriding safety and risking injury.

Smart movement isn’t forceful. It’s intentional.

Looking for a way to move that feels more like joy than effort?

Our ballet class is a beautiful, feel good way to reconnect with your body, boost your mood and yes, burn calories too.

We’re back on Tuesday evenings, the perfect midweek reset to shake off the day and fill your cup again.

Whether you’re easing back into exercise, feeling a bit stuck or just want to move freely, this class is all about feeling lighter and letting those endorphins run high.

No pressure, no perfection. Just music, movement and a space to feel good again.

No experience or tutu needed just come as you are in comfy clothes and grippy socks.

Ready for a gentle burn that leaves you glowing and feeling more like you? Drop us a message to book your spot or find out more.

Hi, I’m Jennifer, it’s so lovely to meet you! 🤎

At Pivot, my goal has always been to create a space away from the pressures of everyday life somewhere you can feel supported, relaxed and truly heard.
 A place to slow down, connect with others and focus on listening to your body while quietening your thoughts.

I’m a Clinical Pilates Instructor and physiotherapist with a special interest in jaw and spinal conditions. But more than that, I’m endlessly fascinated by how movement and science can help us live better, healthier lives with the people we love.

Isn’t it amazing how much we’re learning every day about the body’s ability to heal, adapt and grow stronger?
 At Pivot, every class, every treatment and every conversation is rooted in that ongoing learning combining evidence-based practice with empathy, community and support.

A little more about me: - My favourite Pilates move? The Leg Pull in prone (my regulars will definitely recognise that one!) - When I’m not in the studio, I’m living canal boat life with my partner and our puppy, Hughie.

I’d really love to get to know you too so please say hi in the comments or pop by our studio in Stoke-on-Trent for a coffee and a chat.

Wishing you a lovely rest of your day, Jen 🤎

Our community is growing and we are looking to welcome a new instructor into Pivot Therapies.

We are looking for a reformer instructor who’s confident in their teaching but more importantly truly cares about our community. Someone who understands that Pilates isn’t just about movement but about connection, trust and helping people feel at home in their bodies.

We offer felixaeble hours in our beautiful studio with high end equipment.

You must hold a Level 3 Matwork qualification and experience in reformer is essential.

DM us for more details and information about the position and see how this could be the right fit for you.

We know how hard it can be to fit movement into a busy day, that’s why we designed our studio with real life in mind.

Our changing rooms mean you can come straight from work, get ready before class, or freshen up before heading out again no stress, no rushing home.

It’s a small detail that makes a big difference, and one that many studios overlook.

Because we believe looking after your body shouldn’t add more pressure to your day it should make it easier.

Come move, reset and get on with your day we’ve got everything covered.
