At 69, I realised I needed to take control of my mobility. Having lived with club feet for years—never corrected—my body had adapted in ways that made everyday tasks challenging. That's when I found Jenna.
Starting with 1-1 mat Pilates sessions, Jenna's deep knowledge and patient approach immediately stood out. She understood my unique needs and tailored each session to help me move more freely and comfortably. As we progressed to the reformer, I felt stronger, more aligned, and more confident in my body.
Jenna's support goes beyond technique. Her kindness, encouragement, and sense of humour have made every session something I look forward to. Thanks to her, I've regained mobility in my daily life, improved my work performance, and even danced at a recent gig—something I never thought possible.
Jenna has truly been a game-changer for me. I can't thank her enough for her unwavering support and expertise.

Friendly and welcoming classes for all levels. I’ve been attending for 2 years, I never regret attending a class & always feel the benefit. My strength and flexibility has improved massively and if work allowed I’d attend more classes 😍
The FB live classes are a great way to keep in during this time, check out the taster classes 😊. The online access has been a great way to continue during the lockdown, love the variety and the access to all of the previous live classes allowing you to dip in and out whenever it suits you.

Really enjoy Jenna’s classes. I’ve found they have eased some of the joint pain I experience having fibromyalgia. Jenna is great at tailoring some of the moves to accommodate my needs. The only thing is I now hear Jenna’s voice when going up the several flights of stairs at work saying- “pull in that transverse abdominal muscle”

Fantastic Pilates classes with a fabulous teacher. Always felt very confident taking part in Jenna’s classes as she puts everyone at ease and tailors exercises so that everyone can work at their own level.
She has such a positive and outgoing character which also makes her classes a lot of fun! I’ve been really impressed with the variety of online classes made available over the past couple of months. She’s been in regular contact with everyone and is catering online classes to our needs and abilities. Would highly recommend it! My daily pilates has kept me sane during this rather turbulent

I’ve been doing Jenna’s classes online during lockdown and I can’t recommend them enough. Jenna is a great teacher. She explains all the moves really well and gives alternatives for every exercise. She is also offering a range of classes to fit in with everyone’s day so you can do as little or as much as you like. Thank you, Jenna! ❤️

The Pilates group classes are enormously welcoming, enjoyable and always different. Jenna does an incredible job of remembering everyone’s abilities and injuries to ensure each session is challenging but safe for all. The classes have improved my strength and flexibility and are the perfect antidote to a desk job.
I have a love/hate relationship with exercise classes and have stopped and started these classes as my mental health and work commitments have changed over the last few years. Every time I’ve rejoined, Jenna has welcomed me back with open arms and a smile, free from judgement making it really, really easy to start again each time at whatever level of fitness I am at and whatever state of mind I am in.

I manage a local care home located in Hemel Hempstead. One of our residents, Penny, has been attending Pilates sessions with Jenna for the past two years. Penny absolutely loves going to these sessions and Jenna could not be more accommodating. She is kind, flexible, and builds each session around Penny’s individual needs. Penny lives with significant health problems, attending Jenna’s sessions has given her a strong sense of purpose and wellbeing. Jenna is incredibly encouraging and patient, creating a calm and supportive environment where Penny feels comfortable and motivated. Since starting Pilates, Penny has experienced significant improvements both physically and emotionally. Jenna’s business has flourished, and her new studio in Apsley is a calm and relaxing space that Penny looks forward to visiting. Jenna consistently goes the extra mile to support Penny, demonstrating not only professional excellence but also genuine care. Her dedication has had a meaningful positive impact on our community, and we are delighted to support her in this award.

I have been attending classes with Jenna for the last 7 years or so, firstly group mat classes then reformer 1to1 sessions, and now group sessions for both in the recently opened studio space. I find the classes helpful both physically and mentally - I continue to see improvements in my own performance and really notice the difference of having that class time ring-fenced from the noise of daily life. I always feel better after a class, and always notice the difference when I haven’t been able to attend. Jenna is a great teacher, and during her classes you never feel left out or unsure – she manages to equally support all of us during class regardless of ability or level. Late last year I experienced a challenge with an excessively tight hamstring in one leg, and whilst I had some physio sessions, Pilates classes I attended were a great support to the exercise plan I had and decreased the time it took to get back to full mobility. Jenna, her teachers, studio and students are lovely & welcoming, I cannot recommend Jenna highly enough. I would come to more classes if I were able.

I’ve been having 1:1 mat & reformer sessions with Jenna for about 3 years & am so happy with the difference it has made to my mobility. I had never done Pilates before & was slightly nervous at first, but she put me completely at my ease and from my first lesson I knew I was going to enjoy exercise for the the first time in my life! My knee & hip joints were very solid & I was finding it difficult kneeling down & even getting up off the sofa. Jenna is great at tailoring the movements to my needs & ability for each session. It really does make me feel ‘light’ and energised after each session. My joints are now so much more flexible and I can actually bend down & no longer have to try and lasso my pants onto my foot in the morning! Big improvements to my core strength along with my balance & posture. My weekly 1:1’s with Jenna are hugely beneficial and I always feel so much better after a session

I joined Jenna’s classes last June, doing 2 classes a week. I love them! Even though I have done Pilates for years, I am learning new things and my body shape is changing. Disconcertingly, I have developed some just visible abs at 62! Go me!

Jenna has helped me regain strength & mobility in my knees after being disgnosed with arthritis. With the combination of Reformer and Mat classes, my bad days are now few and far between. I have even been able to start a low impact Zumba classes. Thank you Jenna!

My 17 year old daughter and I are so enjoying our weekly Reformer Pilates class with the lovely Jenna! We both have previously attended Mat based sessions but are loving the low-impact, highly effective machine workout. Jenna always provides clear instructions & is hands on in her approach to ensure everyone gets the most out of a class. With her strong focus on good basics & fundamentals in each exercise, over the last six months my core has strengthened, my back hurts less & my flexibility has really improved. Thank you Jenna for your energy & smiles & guidance.

I have been taking Pilates classes for many years and found it very beneficial in every day life and especially so last year when I had to have a hip replacement. Pilates aided my recovery. After the operation I found the recovery a little easier as I was stronger from Pilates. I had 1-1 sessions with Jenna where she took me through the exercises and routines, advising me on how to reintroduce them safely to my new hip! Once I was able to rejoin the classes, Jenna kept a careful watch over me to ensure I did not over work the hip. Thanks to her instruction & knowledge, my hip is now fully functional again!

Working with Jenna as my Pilates teacher mentor has been an incredibly enriching experience. From the very beginning of my training, she has been a steady source of guidance, support, and encouragement. Her belief in me boosted my confidence to step into the studio and start teaching—something I couldn’t have imagined doing so soon. Jenna’s generosity and trust meant so much; she even gave me the opportunity to teach her own clients, which was both an honour and a huge learning experience. As I now begin to set up my own classes, she continues to be a constant presence—always available with thoughtful advice, a listening ear, or just the encouragement I need to keep going. I’ve found Jenna’s mentorship to be truly invaluable. Her support has not only shaped me as a teacher but has also helped me grow personally. I’m incredibly grateful to have had her by my side through this journey.

I love Jenna’s Pilates classes because as I get older this keeps me mobile. Jenna makes sure we work at our own pace, helping us with any issues and making adaptations for things like bad knees or back trouble. I know if I miss a week how stiff I get!

I’ve been attending 1-to-1 reformer Pilates sessions with Jenna for two years, and I can honestly say she’s transformed my life. At just 28, I underwent two knee replacements due to psoriatic arthritis, which affects most of my joints. Without Jenna’s expertise and unwavering support, I would be far less mobile today. From the very beginning, Jenna took the time to understand my condition and tailored every session to my needs. She adapts exercises to accommodate my limitations while still challenging me to improve strength, flexibility, and coordination. Her deep knowledge of anatomy and rehabilitation, combined with her compassionate approach, has made all the difference.
These sessions have allowed me to continue living my life with greater independence and confidence. I can’t thank Jenna enough for her dedication and care. She’s not just a Pilates instructor—she’s a vital part of my journey to better health.

After years of struggling with back problems and ongoing pain, my doctor recommended I try Pilates. While searching for the right fit, Jenna’s website immediately stood out. Her personal experience with back issues and surgery, along with her specialised training in pain management, gave me the confidence to give it a try.
From my very first Mat Pilates class, I felt completely at ease. Jenna’s knowledge, empathy, and attention to detail are exceptional—she truly knows her stuff! Over time, I progressed to Reformer sessions and noticed a real transformation. I feel stronger, more mobile, and my pain has significantly decreased.
After taking an unavoidable break for a few months, the difference was striking—my pain returned, and my mobility declined. Coming back to Jenna’s sessions reminded me just how valuable they are. I’m committed now more than ever and can’t imagine giving it up again.
Thank you, Jenna, for helping me get my life back on track!
