Get Ready To Move!
I try to make Pilates Mat accessible to everyone.
I’m here to help facilitate self-awareness and a stronger mind-body connection through movement at a slower pace.
About Me
Dance and movement of many forms have been an integral part of my life and have helped me stay grounded over the years.
I am a mother of two adult daughters and a grandmother.
My background is in Regulatory Compliance in the Financial Services sector, so I have an eye for detail.
These life experiences and interests have helped define who I am as a Pilates Mat instructor.
My aim is to help develop your Pilates Mat practice in a safe, non-judgmental space. Beginner level is my area of focus.
I am REPS Ireland registered and insured.

"Pilates with Kathleen has been an integral part of my postpartum recovery journey. In the past five months, I have regained core strength and overall tone as well as improved my vitality. It has been transformative for my mind and body. I’m very happy with the results and highly recommend Kathleen."

"I am now in my 80th year. I suffer a lot with imbalance, mobility issues and back pain. Luckily, I came across Kathleen, and ever since I am certainly more mobile. There were things I could not do when dressing myself. Now I am thankfully able to dress and look after myself. I owe a lot of the return of my mobility to Kathleen. She is patient, kind, very understanding and helpful. She makes me do certain exercises I think I cannot do, but actually I can."

"I’ve really enjoyed taking Pilates classes with Kathleen. She has such a relaxed, calming nature that instantly puts you at ease, and her lovely teaching manner makes every class both enjoyable and effective. She explains each movement clearly, and I always leave her classes feeling stronger, more centred, and uplifted."
