Ann is a certified Balanced Body Reformer Pilates Instructor.
She initially got into Reformer Pilates a number of years ago as a way to rehab her body after having children.
She struggled to do her previous activities such as cycling, running and gym work without pain or getting injured so decided to take a break from them and start reformer pilates.
This was a bit of a change of pace for her, but she was soon convinced of the transformative power of Reformer as her various aches and pains seemed to melt away. Ann became hooked.
She decided to do the teacher training as she had become so passionate about the effectiveness of Reformer Pilates and its ability to enhance your life – from aiding everyday activities or improving sports performance. Ann is a big believer that Reformer Pilates can benefit everybody, every age and every level of current fitness, strength and flexibility.
Louise has an obvious passion for physiotherapy and pilates that’s well matched by her depth of knowledge and individualised treatment approach.
Love my visits here. I attend pre and post natal Pilates with Teresa and find the class so beneficial. I also attend Louise for physio and have made huge progress. Could not recommend more highly. Lovely staff, safe and hygienic premises, if you haven’t gone – go! 5 stars ⭐️
Just back from my first visit with Louise I can honestly say it was the best experience I have ever had from start to finish such a lovely lady I would highly recommend anyone to go visit. I will definitely be returning again thanks 👍
Just had my 2nd session with Carolina, she is so professional and the exercise programe given for in between sessions are excellent. Overall excellent experience.
I cannot recommend Louise O’Rourke & her staff enough, had a Physio session for TMJ this morn’, cannot believe the relief after 1 session. I also cannot stress how effective reformer classes are, my change in body mobility is like day & night, Carolina Pacheo & all the physios, thank you 👍
