WHY PRIVATE COACHING?

Personal coaching designed to fit seamlessly into your schedule. With no travel to the gym and no exercises that don’t suit your body, let’s remove the barriers to staying active—so you can build an exercise routine that makes you feel strong and energised.

01 —

At your home

Habits are strongly anchored to specific surroundings. When coaching occurs within your personal environment, your brain naturally connects your home with wellness. Building movement into your home space reinforces routine, making long-term consistency feel more like a seamless part of your daily life.

02 —

Tailored to what your body needs

Standard group classes rarely account for individual. For example, if someone experiences acute joint or back pain, it is smarter to swap aggressive cardio for low-impact resistance exercises and targeted mobility flows. This keeps your exercise momentum going and benefits your body long-term, without driving up stress or causing discomfort.
Tailored coaching also offers you the unique opportunity to not have to choose between Yoga, Pilates or Strength Training. Your coaching integrates these disciplines into one cohesive routine: Progressive strength, Mat Pilates, Mindfulness and active recovery.

Support between sessions

When returning to movement after a break, injury, or physical transition like perimenopause, fear of hurting yourself is a major barrier. Having expert advice just a message away creates a powerful psychological safety net. Knowing you can quickly double-check form, ask about a sensation, or get immediate feedback allows you to explore new movements safely, rebuilding deep trust in your body’s strength and resilience.

“I found Marie during a time when I wasn’t feeling very well. I had experienced a major breakdown and felt disconnected from my body. I had stopped believing in myself and just thought I wasn’t strong or good enough, so I tried many things, but I quit every time.
However, I knew that I wanted to exercise and regain trust in my body. I wanted to feel strong, capable, and enjoy life again. That’s when I found Marie. I was pleasantly surprised at how good she made me feel, and it wasn’t just about exercise. She met me where I was, listened to my story, and always adapted to what I brought to the table each week. She encouraged and checked in on me regularly. I felt heard and respected, and it felt more like a good friend taking me by the hand and saying, “Hey, I am so proud of you.” I could feel that she believed in me more than I believed in myself and with her encouragement, I began to believe in myself. I looked forward to our lessons and I still feel the strength that I gained from her, even after we stopped working together. It motivates me to keep going and to believe in myself.”

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My goodness what can I say about Marie?! I have worked with her in multiple different capacities over the years from online coaching to nutrition advice to attending a range of her classes from yoga, Pilates and Acro workshops. Over the last few years whenever I have been in Cornwall it is a MUST for me so do a Marie led class. She leads with intention, knowledge and kindness - the space she facilitates leaves you smiling from ear to ear! Everyone in her classes is made to feel it’s an even playing field, she will adjust, que and build based on everyone’s individual needs in a room. I feel I could go on but if you’re looking for a sign to give something a go, this is it! Marie makes me feel brave and for that I’m always grateful!

She has a way of making everyone feel at ease and comfortable, and her passion for health and movement is infectious. Her knowledge of physiology is fantastic, I feel safe in her hands despite being under rehab for an injury. I am so glad that I found her courses!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Marie is an excellent Pilates teacher. Her classes are fun, challenging (in the best way!), and she explains each exercise in detail, ensuring we understand which muscle we are working on. Would recommend her teaching, especially in the post partum stage!
