Tavistock I can't wait to meet you on the mat.

As a Registered Yoga Teacher and a BASI trained Pilates Teacher, I am dedicated to guiding individuals towards greater health and wellbeing through the transfomative power of Pilates and yoga. My mission is to help each client unlock their full potential and experience the myriad benefits of a consistent Pilates and yoga practice. Having also worked as a qualified Personal Trainer, I have had the

privilege of working with some of the biggest names in the corporate world such as Coca-Cola and ExxonMobil, delivering comprehensive employee health and wellbeing programmes. These experiences have further fueled my passion for empowering individuals to prioritise their physical and mental health. At OmCore Pilates & Yoga, I believe in creating a supportive community where everyone feels comfortable and empowered to reach their full potential. In my small and welcoming classes, you are not just another face in the crowd, but instead you’ll receive personalised attention and modifications tailored to your needs. With over 9 years experience as fitness and wellbeing professional, I have the knowledge and expertise in guiding students through safe and effective practices.

Really grateful for this kind 5-star review 🧡

Attention to detail is everything in Pilates — ensuring exercises are performed correctly and making those small, precise adjustments that can completely change how and where you feel the exercise, and the benefits you gain.

Introducing: 1:1 Pilates x Strength Sessions
Launching this May at CORE by Laura

There’s a pattern I can’t ignore.

Clients coming in after picking up injuries in circuits or strength and conditioning classes — not because strength training is unsafe, but because there wasn’t the time, attention, or expertise to correct their form when it mattered.

At the same time, I’m hearing more and more:
“I want to start weight training, but I don’t know where to begin.”
“I’ve got weights at home… but I’m not confident using them properly."

This is exactly where these sessions come in.

Before founding CORE by Laura, I worked as a Personal Trainer with global organisations including Coca-Cola and Exxon Mobil. Strength training has always been a key part of my background — alongside my work in Pilates.

Now, I’m bringing the two together in a fully personalised 1:1 setting.

From May, I’ll be offering 1:1 Hybrid Pilates x Strength Training sessions — designed to help you build strength with clarity, confidence, and precision.

Each session combines:
• Pilates (mixed apparatus) to develop control, alignment, mobility, and deep core strength
• Weight training to teach safe, effective, and confident lifting with progressive overload

Because strength isn’t about rushing or lifting heavier for the sake of it — it’s built through quality movement and understanding your body well.

Pilates remains the foundation of everything I teach, underpinning strength training, sport, and everyday movement.

If you’d like to include weights in your session, just let me know when booking.

I can’t believe we’re nearly at the end of March — this month has flown by! ✨

It felt fitting to share the Helicopter on the Spine Corrector using the BASI F2 System — a beautiful exercise for hip joint control and mobility.

It’s been a busy month at CORE by Laura, and some exciting announcements are on the horizon.👀

Stay tuned 💫

Restorative Pilates – a slower-paced class designed to help you release tension, move with ease, and reset after your day.

Each session blends mindful strength, stretching, mobility exercises, guided breathing, and relaxation. It focuses on common areas of tension such as the shoulders, hips, and back, while improving posture and overall movement.

Tuesdays & Thursdays | 5.45 – 6.45pm
Tavistock Physio Clinic, Lamerton, Tavistock

Session highlights:
• Mindful strength to support posture and movement
• Stretching and mobility to ease stiffness
• Breath awareness to support relaxation and movement
• Guided relaxation to finish

Designed for anyone seeking a slower, restorative Pilates experience that leaves the body feeling freer and the mind calmer.

Small group – spaces are limited.

A big thank you to all the wonderful women who joined me this morning for our Pilates for Women’s Aid event. 💜

It meant so much to come together — to move, relax, chat and raise funds for a life-saving charity — and to be reminded of the power of women supporting women. This cause is very close to my heart, making it a truly special morning.

In true Pilates class fashion, I was so engrossed in teaching (and enjoying a good natter and some homemade flapjack afterwards!) that I completely forgot to take any photos — so here’s one of me post-class instead.

To all the women who come to Pilates with me each week, thank you. The kindness, encouragement and friendship you share is what makes CORE by Laura such a special community

Here’s to lifting each other up and celebrating the strong, resilient women in our lives.

Happy International Women’s Day. 💜

Precision is at the heart of Pilates. It guides every adjustment you make as you learn and refine each movement. It’s about both activating individual muscles and coordinating them together to create controlled, effective movement. The details matter — precision can be the difference between truly engaging a muscle and missing it, and between progress and plateau.

My favourite way to spend a Sunday evening.✨

This is the Bottom Lift on the Cadillac — a wonderful exercise for developing spinal articulation, shoulder extensor control, and hip extensor control.

Curious to learn about the full Pilates method? I have 1:1 studio sessions available this Friday at 12pm and 1.30pm.

Book via the website — I’d love to guide you through a comprehensive Pilates experience.

I know many of you have found this week’s classes challenging, even as we’ve been going back to the fundamentals. Don’t be disheartened!

Pilates can feel tougher the more skilled you become – and that’s actually a great sign. As your body awareness grows, your movement patterns improve, and you start recruiting the right muscles more efficiently, exercises become more precise… and yes, more challenging!

With every class, you’re building strength where it counts and training your body to move smarter!
