HARRIET LEIGH-WOOTTON

I fell in love with Pilates from the first class. I came into a Pilates class feeling disconnected from my body. I found it grounded me; it was a physical and mental exercise that focused me, and helped me regain trust in my body. It helped me feel strong for the first time and opened my eyes to how movement can make you feel. Most importantly, it gave me the joy of movement and helped me see myself in a completely new way.

I work with clients to help them find freedom in their bodies, new patterns in their movement, new ways of being. It’s important to me to bring breath and relaxation alongside movement.

I first took my matwork training with Body Control Pilates in London and taught matwork classes in the UK and whilst travelling internationally. This journey of discovery in movement led me to sports massage training to deepen my knowledge and build manual therapy into my work. From there, I also completed my BASI Comprehensive Pilates teacher training to extend my practice further.
