Your Pilates teacher & Fascia expert - Guro
Born and raised in Norway, I came to the UK in 1996 to study, and ended up staying a lot longer than intended.
After several years at the BBC, my work/life balance wasn’t very balanced at all, and wanting a career change after the birth of my first child in 2009, I trained and qualified as a Pilates teacher with Body Control Pilates. I haven’t looked back since.
In more recent years I have furthered my training in Fascia Movement techniques, allowing me to offer a different experience to other Pilates studios by combining the flow of fascia with the precision of Pilates.
I am dedicated to helping people move and understand their bodies better, and my classes are designed to connect physical health with mental well-being, so that what you learn in my classes will be with you for life.
Still very much a Norwegian at heart, my studio is a little wooden ‘hytte’ (cabin) at the bottom of my garden, reminding me of home. The intimacy of the class sizes has allowed my studio to become a space for clients to make friends and have fun; they leave class feeling rejuvenated, more subtle, stronger and taller… and, more often than not, with a big smile on their faces.
