Pilates is a journey of connection

Pilates is founded on the principles of alignment, breathwork, centering, connection, control & flow

Maybe the reason you found pilates was because you had an injury, or were wanting your core to re-engage after having a baby, or you simply love how strong it makes you feel. Whatever brought you here today, this is now the start of yet another journey. Not only for yourself but also those you will work with, learn from and inspire. I am sure you have experienced something that has made you feel inspired to take the journey to becoming a teacher and look forward to seeing you soon. 🌸

I am mum, who's ambition to be a Pilates Instructor is now a Reality!

I now teach for independent studios, like OnPilates, The Fitness Pack and I am organising my first retreat for 2024!

I started my Pilates Instructor Training with Synergise Me after my online training company went into liquidation. I met Lara teaching in David Lloyd and loved her style and delivery. When Lara explained she was a teacher and assessor I didn’t hesitate to sigh up to her company. I had a wealth of information from the website, face to face coaching and the ability to book a call / WhatsApp when I had a problem/question. I qualified in 2023 after 6 months training. The process was seamless and stress free. I now teach for independent studios, David Lloyd and Nuffield, and am organising retreats for 2024. Thank you Lara and Synergise Me for making my ambition to become a Pilates instructor a reality. I can’t recommend this company enough.
