Ruth Partington

I first discovered Pilates 20 years ago, having worked in the fitness industry for 15 years. I was impressed by the effect it had on my own fitness and it’s precise, intelligent approach.

Having initially trained as a nurse in London, I specialised in cardio-thoracic nursing in New Zealand where my interest in health and fitness began.

I returned  to the UK and moved into the fitness industry, gaining qualifications in exercise to music, gym instruction and personal training. I also worked in health club management and instructor education. I qualified with Body Control Pilates® in 2003 and began teaching group classes in health clubs and in the community as well one-to one clients in their own homes.

My classes are now mainly online, with clients spanning all age groups and ability levels. Clients include those who are very fit, using Pilates to improve their performance in sport. I also have clients  recovering from injury or with chronic conditions, who have been referred by GP’s or physiotherapists.

I am committed to providing professional, high quality teaching that delivers the amazing benefits of Pilates to a wide range of clients.
