Pilates Interests
I love to work with clients on a 1-1 basis on matwork and reformer Pilates. It’s amazing to working with someone on a 1-1 to meet their goals and needs. I often see people who don’t feel ready for a class progress through a series of 1-1’s before integrating into a class setting or we get clients who want to advance their exercises and technique and take their Pilates to the next level! Whatever your needs Pilates can be adapted to you – that’s why I LOVE IT!

Fillet Steak with roast veg and pepper sauce.

10/10 from Stacey Wilmot

"It’s really evident Jo loves what she does and is eager to share her passion with everyone around her. There’s a fabulous relaxed caring atmosphere in the studio and the physio clinic is unlike any I’ve encountered before…it’s great to be a part of it! Can definitely recommend to anyone thinking of giving it a try…"

10/10 from Anne Bell

"I am so glad I followed the ‘what the heck’ moment and went to Causeway Pilates. I find the classes so beneficial for both body and spirit. Body is more flexible and toned and you know it has improved your posture. Joanne is an excellent teacher and explains everything so you understand fully what she is asking. The ‘fun’ moments with the other ladies are hilarious and good for the soul!"
