Meet the Team

I’m one of the founders and instructors here at Serenity. I hold a Level 3 Diploma in teaching Mat and Reformer Pilates and have a passion for helping people connect with movement in a way that feels natural and empowering.  My goal is to build a strong, supportive community at Serenity — a space where everyone feels welcome and included.  Outside the studio, I enjoy Pilates, CrossFit, travelling, live music, socialising, and long walks with my dog Luna — who you’ll often spot relaxing in the coffee shop!

Hi, I’m Sam, the co-founder of Serenity Pilates and Wellness Studio. While I won’t be teaching classes, you can often find me working behind the scenes, ensuring that our studio runs smoothly. When we open, you’ll also catch me spending time at our café, where I am looking forward to connecting with our community over a cup of coffee. Outside of the studio, my hobbies include going to the gym, experiencing different cultures around the world, and walks with my dog. I’m excited to be a part of this journey and can’t wait to see our community thrive!

Hi, I’m Nicola, a passionate Pilates instructor whose journey began in 2010 after the birth of my first son. I discovered Pilates as a way to find my own space, and in 2021, I qualified under Joanne Cobbe of JPilates. I have specialised training in reformer, barre, barrels, and Wunda chair, so you can be sure my classes are designed for everybody. I’m also qualified in pre and post-natal Pilates and have experience working with clients with various injuries. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for all abilities. Challenge yourself in my classes and share my passion for Pilates!

I’m Sarah and I am a Level 4 Strength and Conditioning Coach, experienced Personal Trainer and qualified Reformer Instructor with over ten years in the fitness industry. As a mum of two, I understand how important it is to find balance and build both physical and mental strength that supports everyday life. I combine my love of movement with a focused coaching style, helping my clients to feel confident, capable, and connected in their bodies. I’m always learning and upskilling, so that I can bring fresh knowledge and energy to my sessions.

I’ve always had a passion for health and wellbeing and been lucky enough to work and travel around the world meeting a diverse range of people and visiting some amazing places, training as a reflexologist and Pilates teacher in mat and studio equipment. Over the last 13 years I have trained with BASI and Body Control Pilates, Pink Ribbon breast cancer programme, Level 4 Exercise and Cancer Rehabilitation, Level 4 Lower Back Pain, and Neurological disorders. Exploring further ways to help people holistically improve their health, I discovered the amazing power of Acupuncture. Following three and a half years full time study, at the Integrated College of Chinese Medicine (CICM) I achieved a bachelor’s degree, and Licence to practice in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Five Element Acupuncture. I have since undertaken more studies in muscular skeletal conditions and the NADA protocol which is an ear acupuncture system effective in treating stress, anxiety and addictions, and am a member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC).

Hi, I’m Kirsty — a fully qualified Reformer Pilates Instructor, currently completing my Level 3 Mat Pilates Diploma with London Pilates Academy. Movement has become a non-negotiable in my life — it’s something I rely on not just for physical strength, but for mental clarity and balance too. After years of gym memberships and personal training sessions, I found my passion in Reformer Pilates. I was drawn to its strong sense of community and its adaptability for all levels. It’s a full-body experience that challenges and supports you in equal measure, helping you build strength while creating a deeper connection between mind and body. My classes are flowy, creative, and accessible, designed to help you build strength, improve flexibility, and move with confidence — all while enjoying the process…mostly lying on a bed! What’s not to love!

I’m thrilled to meet all of you and share my love for teaching in the studio. In my free time, I enjoy running, socialising with friends, and of course, practicing Pilates!
