Hi, I’m Clare Palmer

‘Being a relative newcomer to Pilates and having only done approximately six sessions before lockdown I decided to continue Pilates with the online classes. These online classes proved to be an effective and enjoyable way of keeping fit.  The classes are varied and easy to follow, with a new class each week enabling you to target certain areas of your body which, even being a newcomer, I found them easy to follow and felt so much better after each session. I now practice three to four sessions each week and feel so much better for it. The rewards are greatly beneficial.’

‘As a sports therapist and physiotherapy student, I feel that Clare’s Pilates lessons are excellent. She always gives easier & more difficult options and is careful with clients who have specific joint problems.’

‘Excellent classes for everyone. You can take things at your own pace and Clare is very friendly and helpful!’

‘I discovered Clare’s fabulous Pilates classes over 3 years ago when I developed sciatica and was diagnosed with a few herniated lower back disks. She is a natural teacher and so knowledgeable about Pilates as well as the human body and its muscular/skeletal issues. Since the Covid outbreak I have subscribed to Clare’s website, and have thoroughly enjoyed exercising at home with the wide selection of videos available, there is really something for everyone and the instructions are so clear.’

‘Really enjoy your sessions Clare, and they help our aches and pains so much. Thank you.’

‘Your online videos have helped me so much this year. As well as the vital exercise, it’s lovely to see your smiling face- it feels like life is normal for a little while. Thank you so much!’

‘Clare’s classes are just brilliant!  Every class is so different than the preceding ones. Amazing how many Pilates movements there are and Clare builds them up slowly. A few repetitions, then add-ons …. bit more effort needed, more add-ons…..bit tougher, even more effort. Easy to challenging! You stick with what suits you best.

Clare is very conscious of clients who may have mobility issues or joint/muscle aches or problems, and always gives alternative movements.  Her commentary is imaginative, and she gives you visualisations to help you get the movements correct.

If you take her class, you will become so much more supple and fitter as a result.

10 out of 10 for Pilates with Clare.’

‘I have attended Clare’s classes for some time now, firstly face to face and since earlier this year online. The classes are excellent, very varied suitable for all ages and abilities, easy to follow and benefit the whole body. Clare is a particularly good teacher and explains everything and every move in detail. I can highly recommend the classes. Thank you for the classes and especially the shorter ones, I find it handy to fit them into the day.’

‘I have been attending Clare’s Pilates classes since I moved into the area.  I absolutely love her classes. She gives really clear instructions for each of the moves and always gives a variety of options to suit different levels of ability so depending on how you are feeling you can work at your own level.  I often have issues with my back and she is always thoughtful of how I can manage it within the class.  She brings an energy and cheerfulness to the class that is really uplifting.  I feel so much more toned and my strength and flexibility have improved too.  I would thoroughly recommend her classes.’

‘Clare has a wonderful library of video clips on offer. There is so much to choose from, depending on what part of your body you need to work on. I prefer the short half hour sessions for my age and lifestyle. I have recently pulled a muscle in my back, which was really painful, but I believe Pilates has helped me get better quicker. Thank you Clare.’

‘The year 2020 will long be remembered as one in which everyone was only too aware of their own health. One concern has been keeping fit during the time when exercise was not possible in the usual ways.  Clare was quick to recognise this and created the online Pilates sessions that have been so necessary for so many of us. The sessions are easily accessible, reasonably priced, well planned and clearly delivered so that keeping fit and healthy has been a pleasure, not a chore. Well done Clare and thanks.’

‘Great website, easy to use and clear guidance from Clare. Huge variety of exercises in varying lengths of class. And you can dip in and out anytime! Thank you Clare 😊’
