With more than 25 years of experience, Polly offers intelligent, highly individual teaching in a welcoming space where everybody can experience the transformative power of Pilates.
I offer group reformer classes and private sessions with a focus on the joy and fascination of moving your body in this timeless practice.
Polly was a professional ballet dancer with Northern Ballet Theatre before training as a Pilates teacher in 1999. After a knee injury threatened to end her career, intensive Pilates rehabilitation gave her new strength, confidence and another ten years of dancing professionally.
She trained in the Polestar Pilates method in New Zealand, teaching elite sportspeople including players from the All Blacks, Black Caps and Silver Ferns. Back in the UK, she continued her education with the Pilates Foundation and qualified in Gyrotonic.
Today Polly teaches the Arsenal FC First Team, working with the physio department on rehabilitation and injury prevention, and is a guest Pilates teacher for The Royal Ballet. She now brings more than 25 years of teaching experience to her new studio at Griffin Estate in Wiltshire.
Polly also offers private sessions from her studio in West London. Email Polly to enquire.
Maximum four people
Dynamic, full-body workouts on specialised spring-loaded reformers, with individual attention to posture, technique and alignment.
The exercises blend strength, flexibility and deep core engagement in every plane of movement — working smarter, not harder.
Tailored to you
You and Polly work together to understand your unique movement patterns. A movement assessment identifies instability, restriction and the compensations your body has adopted to keep you safe.
Especially valuable for injury, chronic pain, stiff joints, loss of confidence or anyone working towards peak performance.
Location
Polly teaches from a light, airy studio fitted with top-grade Balanced Body equipment, including reformers, Cadillac, ladder barrel and Wunda chair. The studio is based at Griffin Estate, a rural Wiltshire community of reimagined farm buildings for creatives, entrepreneurs and innovators.
