Sarah Smith teaches Pilates and Yoga. I'm in her Pilates beginner's class and I have found it to be a really good introduction to Pilates. She is really funny, caring, professional, and has good positive energy. Whenever I've asked why something is so, she's always given a really good answer, which affirms to me she knows what she's talking about :) Her background is in physical therapy so I believe that gives her good insight. And I think it's really clever that she knows alternative ways to do a stretch/exercise in case one way doesn't suit you. So she happily adapts things to meet your needs. Sarah has inspired, motivated, and energised my spirit to help me "return to life" as Joseph Pilates put it. Strengthening your core is the best thing you can do for your back.

The Apollo Avocado dish was divine. Mmmmm.... yumm. The staff were pleasant. If you order pasta you won't go hungry. I think it's good value for money since you can get a good feed, and take some home.
