About Nic
Nic's Pilates love started with a personal nasty (almost surgical) spinal injury. Following the birth of her second baby, Nic was teaching a lot of high-impact classes and working-out a lot in the gym with very heavy weights. Sadly like so many women in the world, Nic was not guided postnatal to a pelvic health physio to check the status of her pelvic floor and core function. This resulted in a gym program that was too heavy too soon and no pelvic floor activation or rebuilding! The spinal injury sparked the change Nic's whole career and (honestly) life!!
Welcome to the world of Pilates and core training!
Fast forward a couple of years and some serious daily consistency and the spinal surgery was averted! This also sparked Nic's curiosity about everything pre-postnatal fitness care.
Nic then completed the full Pilates Diploma in London, and continued upskilling in Postnatal and pregnancy care, for the following 20 years.
No also proudly trained and part of MumSafe™, guaranteeing a high level of up-to-date information and upskilling. So, is well-versed in providing postnatal and pregnancy care, offering techniques that aid in recovery after giving birth and preparing for a strong birth.
You have the knowledge of knowing you're in safe hands.
Aligning with a few carefully selected pelvic health physiotherapists means that Nic can offer you a referral and know that you're going to be treated with the best and most current industry knowledge, in a caring and thoughtful manner. Which aligns beautifully with our ethos here at MSP.

Her knowledge of the postpartum body, stretches and postures really helped strengthen my body and fix the pains and aches that came with childbirth and motherhood.
The social aspect of catching up with other mums was an added bonus!"

"My husband and I have worked with Nic as our pilates instructor over the past 4 years. She's genuinely an amazing instructor; technically focused, encouraging, and lots of fun! I really respect her skills and knowledge, and am grateful for her attention to detail which helps ensure safe pilates practise. I would highly recommend her services, whichever stage of life you are currently in. Nic competently adapted my pilates practise during my recent antenatal and postnatal periods, which I believe helped my postnatal recovery. She's fabulous!"
