Our Owner

Clare Shillinglaw

Pilates 4 All Owner & Instructor

I originally started practising Pilates in 2008 however Pilates 4 All wasn’t formed until 2016, when I experienced my own health issues. It was then that I really embraced the world of Pilates and went on to become a qualified teacher. Over the past few years, we have expanded and moved studios to accommodate our ever increasing client base, and built a team of 4 teachers.

Together, we love nothing more than passing on the teachings and benefits of this wonderful way of body conditioning. I know myself more than most what it’s like to have deteriorating mobility issues so my main goal as a Pilates teacher is to help my clients explore, strengthen and improve their movement patterns.

Clients can take what they have learned in the studio and apply it to their everyday lives, with the general consensus being that by incorporating Pilates into their daily tasks all your movements will be more efficient. For me, Pilates is not just practising and teaching a series of exercises, it’s a way of life.
