Welcome to
BARREFLIES
Welcome to Barreflies - a health/fitness business that I've been running for over a decade and a half.
I was first introduced to Pilates as a way to combat chronic insomnia and found the practice helped me to focus, feel strong and centred. This kindled a belief that self-care is critical to injury recovery, health, and led me to undertake a Physiotherapy degree, which I completed in 2025.
I discovered the concept of fascia movement training through FAMO (formerly Slings Myofascial Training) in 2017. Between 2019 and 2022 I advanced my professional training with FAMO, and it's been so effective that I've incorporated the practice of myofascial training in all of my classes.
I offer a variety of classes/courses to suit different needs and preferences. Classes are typically offered as 'mixed ability', rather than differentiating between experience level. Each movement builds upon the one before, so good form and technique are prioritised such that the most advanced student is not the strongest or most flexible, but rather the one who is able to listen to and embody the core principles of training.
WHAT ARE YOU AFTER TODAY?
There's no one-size-fits-all for fitness & recovery, so we offer a range of different ways to engage with Barreflies.
Pilates/Barre
Group Classes
Fun, low-impact conditioning classes blending ballet-inspired movements with Pilates.
My most popular offering, classes can focus on a mix of controlled motions, core stability and muscular endurance using light weights. Ideal for toning, balance and all-round strength & resilience.
Movement
Courses
A structured, multi-session, progressive strength course tailored to the groups' level and goals.
Focuses on safe technique, controlled loading, and gradual progression over 4–5 weeks using dumbbells, bands, and bodyweight. Ideal for building strength, confidence, and resilience, supporting better posture, and everyday performance.
