Victoria is a miracle worker, I always come out of her classes (group and 1-2-1) feeling like a new me! I have been going to Victoria's classes since covid and she always keeps the sessions so varied, creating fun, welcoming, motivating & challenging classes. I have never been to a group class elsewhere where the level of attention Victoria gives you on correcting technique or even better teaching you how to do the correct technique is achieved. The care and attention in her 1-2-1 sessions are also amazing, working on the mat (with her gorgeous cat!!) and on the reformer bed I was quickly able to overcome some back problems I had with Victoria's expertise. The class has many regulars which is testament to the quality of the teaching and the warm and friendly environment Victoria creates. I couldn't recommend Victoria & Body in Motion Pilates more for whatever level you are at! Charlotte xx

Victoria is an amazing Pilates teacher. Her classes are always fun, innovative and promoting good movement for every day life. Victoria has also been a fantastic mentor as I embark on becoming a Pilates teacher myself. Giving me her time, support and a platform to practice teaching.

Such a brilliant pilates class. Victoria is a very good teacher. She is encouraging and warm while also being genuine. I find her descriptions of how to do different exercises very helpful - she explains how it feels, not just the names of the muscles. She explains the purpose of each exercise too. The class is a real mix - both men and women - and there are people with a range of ages. I started pilates with Victoria as a complete beginner and liked the class immediately. I would highly recommend her classes to anyone!

What you can practice at Body in Motion Pilates
Body in Motion Pilates offers 2 pilates disciplines. Each one is suited to different goals — read the breakdown below to see which fits.
Reformer Pilates
Reformer pilates is performed on a specialised piece of equipment using adjustable spring resistance. It targets deeper stabilising muscles than mat-based pilates and is widely used for posture correction, core strength, injury rehabilitation and pre/postnatal training.
Mat Pilates
Mat pilates uses your bodyweight on a padded mat, often with small props like resistance bands, blocks and pilates balls. It's the most accessible form of pilates — no heavy equipment, lower price points, and easier to continue at home.
