Meet Your Teacher
Welcome! I'm Suzannah, So Glad You're Here
My path to Pilates began back in 2011 on the River Thames in London. I was training to race at the Women's Henley Regatta with Barnes Bridge Ladies Rowing Club when a skiing accident — resulting in a fractured pelvis — abruptly sidelined my rowing goals. During a long recovery, I discovered the power of clinical massage therapy. Inspired by my own healing, I qualified as a clinical sport and remedial massage therapist at The London School of Sports Massage, which naturally sparked my passion for Pilates as the ultimate tool for rebuilding core strength, flexibility and resilience — all while life was busy with my three teenage children and relocating to Cornwall in 2014, where I also continued to row on the River Fowey.
In 2021, I officially qualified as a Pilates teacher, turning my personal belief in the method into my full-time calling.
Today, I run a boutique studio, Cornish Core Pilates, offering highly individualised, close-knit reformer sessions for one-to-ones, duos, and small groups of up to three people. It is an intimate, supportive space where you get the precise, personal attention you deserve. I also bring the community together with vibrant Mat Pilates classes at The Pattern Hall in Charlestown.
As a fully certified teacher in Mat and Reformer, with credentials in Clinical and Pregnancy Pilates, I welcome bodies of all shapes, sizes, and abilities. Whether you are a complete beginner, recovering from an injury, navigating pregnancy, or looking to challenge your athletic limits, I am here to help you move safely, build confidence and strength, and feel incredible in your own skin.
No matter where you are on your movement journey, I can't wait to welcome you onto the mat or reformer!
Services
Pilates Sessions For Every Level
From your first class to advanced practice, every session is built around you.
Reformer Pilates
Reformer Pilates helps to strengthen the muscles that support your spine and joints, easing everyday aches and pains, including lower back pain. Improving balance, posture and flexibility helps you move through daily life feeling steadier, stronger and more comfortable in your body. Suitable for all abilities including beginners, as it is an excellent way to incorporate a range of resistance which starts where you are at and adapts with you as you get stronger and more confident.
Inclusive Classes
Open level classes, where the exercises are taught in layers, enabling you to work at a level where you are suitably challenged. Everybody is different and you are encouraged to choose which layer works best for you. You are never too unfit or too new to start — you'll fit right in!
Small Group Sessions
Small studio, big attention, progressive movement designed around you and your goals.
1:1 Private Classes
Your body, your pace. Tailored 1:1 individual coaching on your specific goals or recovery needs. Perfect if you would like a little extra confidence before joining a group.
Core Strength Building
Build a stronger centre from the inside out, stand taller, move with ease and support everyday movement.
Overall Wellbeing
More than movement, it's feeling stronger, taller, toned and more comfortable in your own body. Regular movement can support recovery after illness, after surgery or help with everyday aches and pains, including lower back pain.
