ABOUT
My Story So Far
Hi, Im Natacha and you are most welcome to my Online Studio.
Some of you will be familiar with my teaching from attending in person classes in Ballingarry. I have been teaching both mat and reformer classes for a combination of 12 years.
I am the founder & manager of Bodyworks & received my National Qualification and Advanced Diploma in Mat Pilates in 2014 with the NTC Dublin.
In 2019 I qualified as a STOTT® Reformer Instructor and now hold a high standard certification in teaching Essential Level to Advanced Level exercises. My training was completed with Complete Body Movement, a Licensed Training Centre of Merrithew™ {www.merrithew.com}, founders of STOTT PILATES®, who are leading educators in mindful movement and used by studios and fitness facilities worldwide.
Since starting a family, I've realised just how important it is for me to create this online platform. My passion for teaching Pilates and helping people feel stronger, move better and reconnect with their bodies has never changed. BodyWorks has always been about helping people return to life through movement and Im so delighted to continue sharing that with you here 🤍

What is Pilates?
Pilates is a system of low impact exercises which enhance each persons
physical and mental health once practiced regularly.
Pilates corrects postural misalignments by performing specifically designed exercises using body weight as resistance and the connection of deep support muscles known as ‘’The Core/Powerhouse".
When working from the inside out, the movement becomes graceful and
deliberate.
Pilates promotes torso stability, postural alignment, more efficient movement, body awareness and overall wellbeing.
Throughout your Pilates journey you will learn 6 fundamental principles:
Breathing
Centering
Concentration
Control
Flow
Precision
