With over 25 years as a devoted Pilates student and more than 12 years as a dedicated instructor, Ellie brings a wealth of training, experience, and passion to her role as a mentor for the Pilates Professional Academy. 

Ellies journey began in her early 20s as a fresh-faced bride-to-be, searching for a way to sculpt her body for her wedding day. What started as a practical solution quickly transformed into a lifelong love affair with Pilates. Its ability to strengthen, center, and balance the body, mind, and spirit captivated Ellie—and it continues to inspire her daily.

Ellie holds a Diploma of Professional Pilates Instruction and she has completed over 600 hours of training with the Pilates International Training Centre, along with more than 1,000 hours of Pilates education. With over 10,000 teaching hours under her belt, Ellie has spent years perfecting her ability to identify physical imbalances and guide clients toward feeling stronger, longer, and more connected to their true selves.

What motivates Ellie most as a teacher—and now as a mentor—is the opportunity to guide others on their own Pilates journey.

Teaching isn’t just about exercises; it’s about creating meaningful connections between body, mind, and spirit.

Expanding into education allows Ellie to share her experience and passion with the next generation of Pilates professionals, helping them not only become exceptional teachers but also embody the work in their own practice.
