🌎 Happy World Physiotherapy Day 2025!

🌎 Here are a few pictures of my places of work and I am lucky enough to mix my physiotherapy skills with my clinical pilates practice most days.

🌎 Thankyou to my friends, family and current and past patients and pilates clients for supporting me at both and to support you to keep active and injury free

🌎 Today I enjoyed teaching a few Pilates classes, coffee with my Monday morning clients, a few physio patients at my home clinic and my evening classes where we worked hard for our week 8 classes…..having fun in a safe, supported, community. I feel privileged to call this my job.

🌎 A little about me incase you didn’t know:
🌸Born in England
🌸Qualified as a Physio in UK 24years ago
🌸Qualified as a certified Pilates matwork instructor over 16years ago
🌸Been living in Nz over 15years

🌎 What do you find good/helpful about Physio and clinical Physioled Pilates classes?

🌎 Don’t forget to book your space in Term 4 Pilates classes in October…. Bookings opened last Friday and some are already fully booked. If you can’t get in please remember you can go on a waiting list or try the Online library memberships. Kate is always keen to support you so do reach out if you have any questions.

🌎 Enjoy moving into spring keeping active through exercises. Kate x
