Meet Jacqui
There is a lily pond in Mapleton that stopped me in my tracks the first time I saw it.
It reminded me of Lindfield Pond, in the old village of Lindfield in Sussex, England — where I grew up, where my parents lived, where I always felt most at home. Still water, lily pads, and a quiet that settles something in you. When I found that same feeling here in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, I knew I was exactly where I was meant to be.
​
I came to Pilates the way many of my clients do — not as a fitness enthusiast chasing the next challenge, but as someone who needed to move better, feel stronger, and understand what my body was actually capable of.
​
​​I trained through Breathe Education under Raffaello Bender — one of Australia's most rigorous, evidence-based Pilates programs. I'm a certified Pilates Instructor and Clinical Exercise Specialist with over 10 years of experience.
​
Pilates is not just what I teach. It is how I live.

Happy Clients
Jacqui is the best! I’ve experienced on and off back pain and sciatica since having my second child. Jacqui’s classes have helped strengthen my core and my back pain is almost non existent! Each class feels like a workout but is also a massive pain reliever. Highly recommend!
