    Meg

    Meg fell in love with pilates during Covid lockdowns. After finding a way to move her body that she truly enjoys, she wanted to share her love for pilates with others and completed her Mat Pilates and Reformer Pilates Instructor Certifications. She absolutely loves the connections that she is able to create with clients in the Studio, seeing their big smiles when they master an exercise, and guiding them to their full potential.

    Kathryn

    Kathryn fell in love with Pilates after becoming a mum. She loves that Pilates allows you the time and space to focus purely on your whole self, and forget all the outside noise - not always an easy thing to do! She also loves being able to share this with others, helping them quiet their minds and move their bodies. Kathryn is certified to teach Barre, Mat Pilates and Reformer Pilates.

  • Nadia

    Nadia recently obtained her Barre Instructor Certification, appreciating the way that Barre combines elements of Pilates, Ballet and Yoga. Nadia studied Ballet growing up and discovered Yoga in her 20s, finding it helped her connect back to herself during that turbulent time in her life. She realised this type of movement benefited not only her body, but also her mental health. Now, she wants to create fun and challenging classes to share that benefit with others!

    Kaitlyn

    Kaitlyn is a certified Mat Pilates teacher, she is also a Reformer Teacher Trainee. Kaitlyn says: “Pilates is more than just a workout to me. It’s a way to build strength, confidence, and connection with your body. I fell in love with how it makes you feel: Aligned, capable and empowered from the inside out.

    “I became an instructor because I’m passionate about helping others move well and feel strong. My goal is to create a supportive space inside the classroom where you feel challenged and confident at the same time, because movement should make you feel good.”

    Ella-Rose

    Ella-Rose is a Personal Trainer, working 1:1 with clients in the gym, as well as a Group Fitness Instructor, teaching Zumba, Spin and Aqua Aerobics. She became a client of NJOY over two years ago and instantly fell in love with Reformer Pilates. She originally wanted Pilates to be the one form of movement she could simply enjoy for herself, but over time she found herself thinking about how she would program classes and imagining herself leading the room — so here she is! Ella-Rose takes a lot of pride in programming sessions with intention and flow, but most importantly, empowering everyday people to enjoy exercise in a safe, effective and fun environment. She is so excited to join the NJOY team!
