Be kind to your body
"If at the age of 30, you are stiff and out of shape, you are old. If at 60, you are supple and strong, then you are young" ~ Joseph Pilates

"In 10 sessions you will feel the difference. In 20 sessions you will see the difference. And in 30 you'll be on your way to having a whole new body." ~ Joseph Pilates

about me
Justine Davidson
Justine trained with the Canadian based STOTT Pilates method in London. She came to Pilates after attending Pilates classes as a student for quite a few years. Initially, Justine attended mat and reformer classes in Dubai, where she picked up the “pilates bug”! After being a “keen bean” and Pilates enthusiast for 11 years, her love and sheer enjoyment of Pilates lead her to becoming a teacher. She has always been fascinated by how effective it is as an exercise form and has enjoyed seeing the results in her clients as well as herself. Her classes, like her, are warm, inviting and fun… but they’re definitely not easy! She loves challenging her clients and watching them grow into stronger, more flexible, more confident versions of themselves!
