I am a sculptor; I have been practicing and teaching for twenty two years. Two years ago I discovered Peter Sheehy's Pilates classes. Like Joseph Pilates Peters passionate intensity is like art, he seems to mould bodies as if they were made of clay.

Joseph Pilates spent more than 30 years researching the effects of exercise on health and fitness. Anatomy and physiology form a bridge between the two disciplines.

I share this passion and I am now combining my passion for sculpture and teaching with my new found love for the Pilates method.

"There is a pattern in the body, visible in its contours. We must learn to see it, to know with surety that a particular contour speaks of underlying elements fitting together in a certain way." Ida P. Rolf
