ABOUT ASHIYA

SERVICES

Private (1-1) sessions FURTHER INFO

Working across all studio apparatus in a highly focused way. These sessions are tailored to the client’s individual needs, from pain management through to specific skill building and advanced training. I work with a range of people from total beginners to fellow Pilates teachers.

As a comprehensively certified teacher, I teach Pilates as a system, which means using a range of large apparatus during private sessions, not just the reformer or mat. As such, at my studio, I have the Reformer, Tower, Wunda Chair, Ladder Barrel and Spine Corrector, each of which can be used in unique ways.

I also offer semi-private 2-1 (duet) sessions for more experienced clients, as well as focused sessions for sports people and for injury recovery and rehabiliation, both of which are carefully programmed to suit individual needs.

PRIVATE BOOKINGS & CALENDAR

ONLINE MAT CLASSES FURTHER INFO

I teach twice-weekly online mat Pilates classes via Zoom, which run every Tuesday at 6:30pm (all levels)and Saturday 9:00am (intermediate+). These can be joined on a drop-in basis, or via a £25 monthly subscription which includes access to all Zoom classes and an on-demand archive of approximately 200 videos. You can try this out with a 7-day free trial.

ONLINE MAT CLASSES

WORK WITH ME

My private clients receive hands-on, individually tailored guidance that meets them where they’re at on the day. I place a strong emphasis on form and technique, breaking down movements to a level of detail that helps people deeply understand and tune into the work.

Similarly, I teach my online clients with precise verbal cueing and imagery, so they know what they’re supposed to be feeling and how to modify if needed. This means they can practise at home with confidence.

I often describe Pilates as a discipline that was designed to help people live and do other things better. Yes, it builds strength and flexibility, it improves posture and balance, and generally leaves clients feeling great at the end of a session. It’s truly brilliant.

However, the unique thing about Pilates is that it’s not so much about the Pilates itself: it’s about how it translates to life outside of the studio. It improves your mind-body connection and proprioception. It teaches you how to properly control your body, develop better awareness, restore imbalances, and activate specific muscles with total precision. All of this positively impacts on everything else, whether your aim is improving performance in sports or being able to carry your shopping home without pain.

Use Pilates to build specific skills in relation to a specific sport or activity, or simply to feel and live better in day-to-day life. Make the practice work for you.
