Pilates inspired movement for all

Pilates is about working with and not against our bodies, it’s about movement and rebalancing our bodies. I offer different approaches to get the best out of your body in small, friendly focused groups. I also do workshops, 1:1's and retreats.

Pilates Classes

Welcome to Flow Pilates with classes in the South Derbyshire area. When it comes to looking after your body, Pilates is adaptable to any fitness level and need. I like to think that any body can move and apply my knowledge of anatomy and science to Pilates, in helping and motivating individuals of any age and fitness, to participate in Pilates. Pilates is accessible to all!

Classes without judgement – There are many levels at which Pilates can be taught and options are always offered during a class. Using knowledge of anatomy, biomechanics and client care, individual adaptions can be used to help you achieve maximum results.

Our amazing feedback

I have participated in Pilates classes for about 5 years but had these curtailed by the Covid Pandemic.  I have greatly benefited from participation, felt stronger, more flexible and generally better from practicing the method. 

I have recently returned to classes led by Emma Clarke. I find Emma’s sessions well organised and professional including a very personable and sensitive approach. Emma has a thorough understanding of amatory and physiology and clearly exemplifies and instructs Pilates essentials and exercises very effectively. I have no doubt under Emma’s instruction I will improve my physical and psychological well-being. 

I have no reservations in recommending Emma as a Pilates leader, indeed I have already encouraged some friends to join her classes.

Having struggled in the past to feel comfortable and confident attending Pilates classes, Emma’s Pilates Breast workshop was a breath of fresh air. Emma’s understanding of the affects that breast cancer treatments can have on range of movement and muscle strength enabled her to offer a class where everyone could work to their individual capabilities and within their comfort zone. I was particularly pleased to find I was in an environment where I was at ease to raise questions and ask for assistance without feeling self-conscious or embarrassed. This is definitely a class I will return to!

Highly recommend, I found Pilates & this fabulous group as a complete novice and I absolutely love it! Emma is a brilliant instructor. It has changed my life as it is helping me with my health issues and it is actually reducing my back pain. I love being able to exercise outside when the weather permits. Really wish I had started Pilates years ago as I absolutely love it.
