I found Jo to be an excellent physio, after 8 months of different appointments, numerous scans and other physio, Jo was the only one who correctly diagnosed my injury and spent a great deal of time and effort in to advising me what to do whilst also bring frank and honest, would definitely recommend!

I totally recommend Clinical Pilates classes with Jo. She is an excellent teacher, with a calm and encouraging manner, who is brilliant at explaining the exercises and making sure that they are tailored to each person in the class. I find that her classes help me feel stronger physically but they are also relaxing and enjoyable!

Jo provides exactly the right balance of support and encouragement to challenge and improve your physical wellbeing. Her expertise and attention to detail, along with explanations of what each exercise is for is why I’d highly recommend Jo’s classes and her approach to Clinical Pilates. I’ve noticed improvements in posture, and, thankfully, my leg after a bad ankle injury some time ago.

I saw Jo with neck pain after I hurt my neck in a surfing accident. She put me at ease and spent time taking a detailed history. Her treatment was excellent and she explained everything including what she was doing and why it would help. Jo gave me exercises and made sure I was doing them properly. The difference in just one session was really impressive. I can’t recommend Jo highly enough.
Jenny
I would highly recommend Jo’s clinical Pilates. Throughout the four years I’ve been doing classes with Jo I’ve benefited from a reduction in knee and back pain, which I had suffered previously and an improvement in my overall strength. Jo is brilliant teacher and goes out of her way to tailor exercises to individuals needs whether it be an injury or to suit individual fitness levels. Jo’s classes are small, relaxed and really enjoyable and I look forward to going every week.
Heather
I started Pilates with Jo following a difficult birth and the subsequent recovery with my first baby. Jo was very thorough in assessing the level I was able to work at and took the time to understand my areas of concern. Jo was able to tailor exercises as appropriate as well as move me up through the exercise levels at a sustainable rate. Jo’s classes were instrumental in helping me to rebuild my core strength and also with improving my post-pregnancy physical and mental wellness. I have no hesitation in recommending Jo for her expertise, calm and friendly approach and professionalism.

Expert tuition from an intuitive and mindful physiotherapist. Jo is aware of individual limitations yet still manages to keep everyone feeling challenged while keeping us all smiling too. A rewarding and relaxing class which gives a mid-week boost to tired bodies.

Jo has helped me greatly with several issues in recent years, and her diagnosis and associated treatment plans have proved to be extremely effective. She is very knowledgeable, caring and professional in her approach and I have not hesitated in recommending her to friends. I also attend Jo’s Advanced Clinical Pilates classes which are very enjoyable and have, I’m sure, kept me supple, strong and less prone to injury.

I’ve been doing Pilates with Jo via Zoom for four years now, and I couldn’t be happier! Jo is incredibly professional, packing a wealth of knowledge about body anatomy that she conveys in a super understandable way. But what really shines is her passion and joy – she’s approachable, excellent at communicating, and makes the classes a pleasure. The standout feature for me is that Jo sends recordings of every class. It’s absolute gold! With my busy and unpredictable life, this means I never miss out – I fit in sessions whenever I can, often doing bits in little snapshots here and there. It’s extremely beneficial and removes any excuse to skip a class! Overall, Jo’s classes are a fantastic fit for me, and I’d highly recommend her Pilates sessions to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, passionate, and flexible instructor.

I have known Jo for many years, as a physiotherapist and a Pilates teacher, and I am very grateful for her hard work and dedication. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and thorough in her approach to dealing with injury, her attention to each individual patient/student, her encouragement, kindness and empathy are second to none. Thanks to Jo, I managed to get back to full health and mobility after many injuries over the years. She structures her Pilates classes with a sharp focus and attention to detail and balance, and she offers alternative exercises for everyone based on where they are on their healing journey week by week. And on top of that, Jo’s classes are fun!
Daniela
Jo has been an absolute wonder to meet and benefit from her wisdom and experience. I attended Physio with her suffering with pain in my leg and foot when walking. She assessed the problem and gave me exercises to help. I also joined her Clinical Pilates Classes which have been immensely helpful to improve my strength and balance. Her guidance is tailored to each of her client’s needs. She is very professional and will advise and suggest in a very considered manner that is not pressured but is always helpful. I am very grateful to have found her!

Jo has worked closely with me over the past 5 years in successfully deploying her professional physiotherapy and planning skills to guide my recovery following spinal surgery. I now stand unaided, pain free and mobile and a grateful and enthusiastic member of her Pilates class.
