The studio is run by Karen Kidd, a certified Level 3 Matwork Teacher trained by the Body Control Pilates Association in London. With over 24 years of personal experience with Pilates, Karen is passionate about sharing the benefits of Pilates with others.

Karen's journey with Pilates began when a GP recommended it to alleviate lower back pain during pregnancy. She found that it not only helped ease her back pain, but also strengthened her stomach muscles and pelvic floor. Impressed by the positive impact it had on her own health, Karen decided to become a Pilates teacher to help others in similar situations.

As a Level 3 Matwork Teacher, Karen is well-equipped to guide individuals of all backgrounds and fitness levels through Pilates exercises. She has also completed additional courses, including Pilates for the Older Person, Pregnancy (Ante- & Postnatal) Pilates, and Pilates with the Foam Roller, among others.

Karen's sessions focus on achieving a complete co-ordination of body, mind, and spirit, aligning with Joseph Pilates' belief. She provides a variety of classes, including classes for beginners as well as more advanced practitioners, ensuring that everyone can find a suitable level. The studio's timetable, available on their website, provides detailed information about the days, times, levels, and venues of all classes.

The benefits of Pilates are numerous. It improves posture, strengthens core muscles, increases flexibility, enhances body awareness, and improves co-ordination, balance, and alignment. It also promotes muscle tone, strength, and joint mobility. These benefits have led medical professionals, such as Osteopaths, Chiropractors, and Physiotherapists, to recommend Pilates as a safe and effective form of exercise.

Whether you are new to Pilates or have been practising for years, Karen Kidd Pilates welcomes you to their friendly and supportive studio environment. They provide a range of classes tailored to individual needs and goals, ensuring a personalised experience for every student.
