Your First Visit
Consultation and Assessment Process
On your initial visit I will analyse your posture, and assess how it is influencing the way you move, possibly exacerbating any problems you are experiencing.
Bridgette’s Qualifications
And experience
Following my University studies, I learned how psychological stress manifests itself in the body. I founded Derbyshire Pilates in 1999, incorporating a mind and body approach into my work, and found it to have a profound, positive effect on my clients’ wellbeing.
What is Pilates
Connecting body & mind
The Pilates method is not merely an exercise regime for conditioning the body. It intrinsically connects body and mind.

What Clients Say
How lucky we were to find Bridgette!! She has shown such commitment to Joseph’s rehabilitation and has been incredibly supportive throughout.
My back feels stronger and I can now stand and walk for long periods of time without suffering the debilitating pain I had before. I have and would recommend Bridgette to anyone who wants to prevent or support a back related issue.
Bridgette was very professional in her approach, but friendly and approachable, and it was obvious to see the knowledge and expertise she has on these matters.
It was clear that the Pilates exercises I was doing before and since the accident, have been of immeasurable help in restoring me to almost 100% fitness.
