I'm Wellnes by Norah
a Pilates instructor
I first discovered Pilates when I was burned out from a punishing gym routine and needed a more gentle way to exercise. I started classes in the summer of 2008 and used the practice as both a full body workout and a way to heal chronic back pain. In 2019, after seven years in a demanding corporate career, I decided to retrain to be a Pilates instructor.
I have been disabled since birth and knew that I wanted to help other people with disabilities, especially those who felt marginalised, intimidated, or unwelcome in fitness or exercise classes.

Classes
Online classes require a mat and, if you have them, props, like a flex band, toning balls, or a foam roller. Classes are available for 30 or 60 minutes, depending on your preference. I will guide you through the workout and answer any questions you have, while addressing any pain and injuries that you are working with.

About Me
Five years on, I have helped hundreds of people manage their disabilities and heal their pain and injuries. I’ve built a community of 1.6 million followers on TikTok, and hear from people every day that they’ve started Pilates classes after watching my content and they’ve never felt healthier, stronger, or more comfortable in their bodies.
Pilates is a truly brilliant system of full body exercise that does so much more than just shrink your waist and tone your glutes – it gives you the strength, endurance, mobility, and flexibility to be so much more comfortable in your body and in your daily life, from carrying your groceries to going for pain-free runs.
