Claire Tappenden

Pilates Teacher
Claire discovered Pilates more than fifteen years ago and was immediately impressed by how it improved her strength, posture and overall sense of wellbeing. Inspired by her own experience, she decided to train as a teacher with STOTT Pilates.
Her mat-based training places strong emphasis on anatomy, postural alignment and controlled, balanced movement. Claire has also undertaken further Reformer Pilates training, broadening her understanding of how Pilates exercises can be adapted to different bodies, abilities and individual goals.
Claire’s teaching style is light-hearted, attentive and encouraging. She believes Pilates can benefit people of every age, shape and level of experience, and takes time to understand what each student wants to achieve. Her personalised approach is particularly suited to private sessions, whether you are learning the fundamentals, improving technique or working towards greater strength, control and confidence.
