A former Registered Mental Health Nurse and trained Counsellor, Rachel worked for MIND and in other community settings before training as an aerobics instructor and then as a British Association for Cardiac Rehabilitation Phase IV Exercise Instructor. Following the birth of her children, she trained with Modern Pilates as a matwork teacher (a course devised and taught by phsyiotherapists) and went on to complete advanced training in Pilates for back care, for shoulder, knee and hip and for the older adult. Her further training has included one-to-one assessment, Pilates exercise prescription, Reformer and Cadillac (with Gordon Thomson – formerly of Body Control Pilates).

Read what our clients are saying about Pilates tutor Rachel Luck:
“Doing Pilates with Rachel is an absolute joy – she knows her kit, is an ace teacher and has the most wonderful sense of humour. I’m absolutely bereft if I have to miss a class – it’s the best therapy ever”
Please be aware that as Judy is also a teacher of Alexander Technique, Moving Mindfully classes normally include a short carefully facilitated section of gentle hands-on partner work – just a quiet hand on the back, enhancing the sense of presence in the back. Students often find this a most beneficial aspect of the classes, effortlessly encouraging greater poise and spaciousness in movement.

· They have profoundly enhanced my mental and emotional balance, groundedness and sense of being powerfully present in my body
