Classical Pilates Instructor

Susan is an advanced Classical Pilates instructor having graduated from The Pilates Centre, Colorado, one of the most respected and thorough training programs in the world. She completed more than 950 hours of mat and equipment training at Pilates from the Center in Lonsdale, North Vancouver. In addition to running Zest Pilates, her home based studio in Deep Cove, she has also worked at Distilled Pilates, BC Nurses Union, Pilates from the Center and Trimetrics Physiotherapy.

Originally from the UK, Susan’s relationship with Pilates began after the birth of her children 16 years ago, at Cobham Pilates, Surrey, UK .  Wanting to regain control over her body and find that elusive “me-time”, Pilates became a part of her life. 

Moving to Vancouver 13 years ago provided the opportunity to be introduced to Pilates from the Centre in Lonsdale, North Vancouver where the Classical Pilates Method gave Susan that lightbulb moment.  That moment of realization inspired her to invest her time and energy into becoming a Pilates Instructor.

 She is a firm believer in Joe Pilates philosophy – “Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness” Her holistic approach to Pilates enables her to encompass both physical and mental well-being for her clients.
