Our amazing instructors
Olitta is a professional dancer and personal trainer who first came across Pilates during her dance training and the many pathways she could take on her career. She has always had a passion for the anatomy and physiology of the body and how much it can move in different planes. Near the end of her dance training, her passion grew more, where she saw that there was a need for fitness to be implemented into people’s everyday lives. She's passionate about meeting people's health and fitness goals in 1-1 personal training sessions, and always seeking to learn new skills which has now led her onto starting her teaching career in reformer Pilates at Flowing Body Pilates.
Kylie is originally from Australia and has been living in the UK for over six years. Suffering the effects of a desk job and sedentary lifestyle, she sought a way to break the pattern. The solution came in the form of Pilates. Having tried a few classes, she soon realized Pilates was a passion! She loves the way it supports the body by enhancing posture, and by increasing strength and flexibility. She decided to take our teacher training course and the rest is as they say: history!
