Nicola Barber

I was a PE teacher for 20 years but I have been practising clinical Pilates for around 10 years after suffering from persistent lower back pain due to a weak core, poor posture and being right sided dominate in too many sports! I have seen the improvement in myself and I was keen to study this area further.

In recent years I have had to have a couple of major surgeries and I believe that my speedy recovery was due to the level of Pilates I practise but also my understanding of the body to adapt the exercises to suit the situation.

I am a fully qualified matwork teacher having completed my training with the APPI (Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute) world leaders in the field of Clinical Pilates and I love delivering group and 1:1 sessions enabling others to benefit from Pilates.

I am continually developing my knowledge and expertise and I have completed courses in the following areas:

·         Ante and post-natal Pilates

·         All the Small Balls

·         Pilates for Osteoporosis
