PILATES YOU CAN ACTUALLY DO
ZERO PRESSURE
All my classes are about doing what you can, when you can. This may vary week to week or day to day. I want you to learn to work with your body rather than push it past what it can cope with. There is no pressure to do more than you feel you are able.
CHRONIC ILLNESS FRIENDLY
These classes are designed for people exactly like you, living with chronic illness with pain, fatigue, nausea, gut issues, dysautonomia, head pain etc. Classes include specific cues and an understanding how how to move to support your body with these conditions rather than making you feel worse
MULTIPLE OPTIONS
Includes sections to pick classes based on symptoms, time, energy level or body-part focus. Plus within each class I give multiple options for positions, guidance on how to use props to make things easier or harder and cues to help you feel your muscles working without straining your joints.
ON-DEMAND CLASSES
Over 250+ pilates classes ready for you to do what you can, when you can
Join me for Pilates classes all designed for those with chronic conditions. New classes are added each week, with plenty of options, and never any pressure to do more than you can do. The goal is to breathe and enjoy moving your body on your terms. Feel stronger and connected, without an increase in pain or symptoms after class.

Bed and Chronic Classes
From the original Bed Pilates and Chronic Pilates collection that is still ever growing. Classes that help you make progress in a way that suits your body.
It's really difficult to find the right kind of exercise, at the right intensity for chronic illness, but the bed pilates class is perfect! Zoe offered lots of different modifications ranging in difficulty, which was great. Look forward to booking more classes :)
Laura Muir
Bed Pilates is the only consistent weekly exercise class I’m able to commit to, and always look forward to. No matter whether it ’s a low or high pain day, the exercises and modifications Zoe provides allows the class to always be the perfect balance of challenging and accessible that I need on that particular day.
Sophie Cartwright
I have struggled for years to find an exercise class that suits me. MS relapses have left me so weak that finding something that gives me the perfect amount of push but not over doing it has always been hard. I really really enjoyed this class and found it suited me well! I’m definitely going to be in regular attendance.
