Taking care of your mind, body and soul.

“ Be in control of your body and not at its mercy “

Joseph Humbertus Pilates

Testimonials :

When I came to Pilates Living, back pain dominated my life and I would have sneered in response to this quote.
With Ann’s help, this changed. I am learning to move, to breath and to find balance in body and mind.

I was amazed to find that movement truly can heal body and mind.

During the Coronavirus emergency the online Pilates lessons became a big part of my sanity saving strategy to live a life in lockdown not just without fear of back pain, but with regular new lessons to look forward to.

When I first met Ann I was in despair about my mobility. I wondered how a fit ex prima ballerina would be able to help an overweight woman in her 60s with chronic arthritis, two hip replacements and a recent full knee replacement - which had not worked out and caused me as much pain as it had before the operation.

Thirteen years later Ann is still helping me stay mobile. She is a wonderful Pilates teacher who can work with all ages and conditions. I have recommended her to many people, all of them rate her extremely high.

As for me I firmly believe that she saved me from deep depression and enabled and motivated me to work on increasing my mobility and strength. I am full of gratitude to her personally and professionally.

For many years, I have been at my desk in front of the computer every single work day, and over time this has had an impact on my body. My Pilates classes with Ann have made all the difference. Pains that I have experienced for a long time have disappeared, I feel less stiff and much more relaxed. Simply put: Ann is amazing!

Amazing! I had done Pilates in the past and hated it. This is something completely different: tailored, soft and transformative.

Ann de Vos is an absolutely outstanding pilates teacher. I have worked with some of the best from the various Pilates schools across London, San Francisco and Seattle. Ann brings a unique combination of boundless creativity, profound and immediate intuition, seemingly endless repertoire and highest level knowledge. Her career as a top international ballet then contemporary dancer has given her such a deep, dynamic and then dimensional understanding of the body that she takes no time at all to see the limitations and challenges of your body, and to find creative and helpful movement solutions. Honestly , no session will be the same as the one before, and yet you will always walk out in less pain, more grounded, that bit taller, and delightfully more aware of how to use your body with each step. The studio is lovely and light, with all the machines you could wish for and tonnes of interesting mobile kit to "play with". There is wonderful art on the walls- Ann has a habit of supporting local artists. The atmosphere is kind, accepting, inclusive and positive. I am gushing, but for very good reason! Am.sure there is no better place - or more reasonably priced. Go and enjoy and get stronger!
