Hi I am Elena
Pilates Teacher and Holistic Health Expert specialising in Lower Back Pain.
With over 15 years of a corporate career under my belt, I know first-hand what prolonged immobility can do to our joints, spine and general wellbeing. It was this realisation that led me to give up my corporate life to help others. Several years of combining studies for a degree in Nutritional Science with a full-time job meant that my lifestyle had become increasingly sedentary and lead to debilitating back spasms. I then re-trained in Pilates and now use this unique combination of skills and knowledge to help busy professionals live their best life without back pain.
My qualifications include:
Degree in Human Nutrition and Health (BCNH)
Level 4 Diploma in Lower Back Pain Management (HFE)
Level 3 Diploma in Teaching Pilates (YMCA)
Level 3 Diploma in GP Exercise Referral (HFE)
Mobility Specialist Diploma (FRC® )
About Pilates
Many confuse Pilates with Yoga, however, these disciplines are very different.
Pilates is reminiscent of physio exercises but aimed at the whole body rather than its isolated parts and performed with the flow, which makes it a lot more fun!
