Meet Becky

THE VISIONARY BEHIND UDEN PILATES

Becky first discovered Pilates when struggling to recover from a snowboarding accident in 2008. As an active and ambitious Londoner, she set out to regain her strength, mobility and flexibility so that she could start moving her body with ease again.

But that’s not all it did. As well as accelerating her immediate recovery, Becky also uncovered the emotional and spiritual transformation of introducing Pilates into her everyday life. The new sense of clarity was so empowering that it saw Becky wave goodbye to her digital media office job and embark on a journey to share her passion with people across London and beyond.

Today, Becky is a fully-certified instructor holding a full comprehensive classical certification on all apparatus with Holly Murray at Pi , and contemporary qualifications for Mat, prenatal and postnatal with Joanne Cobbe at JPilates. With a community of passionate clients ranging from teenagers to those in their 80s, her mission of transforming lives through the power of Pilates is still just as strong as the day she started.

Meet The Team

Isaura Rushton

PILATES INSTRUCTOR

Isaura’s Pilates journey started from a lifelong love of dance, choreography and a desire to help people to feel good about themselves and their bodies. Her background in ballet and contemporary dance lead her to qualify with the prestigious JPilates in Mat based Pilates in 2019 and Reformer Pilates shortly after. From here she went straight into teaching group and 1-1 sessions.

Isaura strives to empower people by helping them to rediscover the joy of movement, regain their independence and move pain free. Since qualifying she has worked with a range of people with a range of injuries and neurological disorders (MS/CFS/Fibromyalgia). This drives her continual study and journey of discovery to greater understand the human body.

What you can expect in a session with Isaura..

Isaura designs Pilates classes with exploration of the body’s capabilities and functional movement patterns in mind. Her calm and friendly approach creates a safe environment for people to comfortably create a healthy connection with body, mind and movement.

Zhana Leeson

PILATES INSTRUCTOR

Practising Pilates for over a decade, Zhana was originally introduced to The Method after experiencing pain from a herniated disc. She was quickly hooked and it became her retreat from London life. However, it wasn't until she relocated to Amsterdam that she certified as a Pilates teacher. Life has brought her back to the UK where she continues to teach, share her passion, and further her knowledge of both classical and contemporary Pilates.

    I am so grateful I found Becky...having moved from London I feel so lucky to have found such great teaching in Hurstpierpoint. Becky is so caring and warm and really makes you feel part of her gang. The class at Pitfield Barn is fantastic - the class is engaging and challenging and we learn each week all in beautiful surroundings which are a nice escape after a day at work. The one to one sessions with Becky in her studio take my learning of Pilates to another level and I can't wait to take my training further each week using the amazing reformer and equipment Becky has carefully selected

    “I absolutely loved Beckys pregnancy and postnatal classes. She is extremely knowledgeable and attentive, so I always felt safe in her hands. Her classes are the perfect balance of stretch and strength to help relieve all those lovely aches and pains that come with pregnancy but especially to help build the strength needed in those third and fourth trimesters. Thanks to Becky my body was in the best shape it could be in when my two little ones arrived!”

  • Client Love

    I’ve been doing private and group reformer Pilates with various different teachers in London and Essex for the past 8 or so years and recently moved to near Hurstpierpoint. I started seeing Becky since 6 weeks post partum with my second child & now I’m 14 weeks. She’s an absolute perfectionist & master of her craft. You can immediately sense that she’s extremely experienced in classical Pilates, she can see every single move you make & corrects you to ensure you’re doing everything accurately, which you can instantly feel makes such a difference to your practice & results.

    Becky and her team of expert Pilates teachers all share a passion for helping us to have a really excellent full-body workout. The mixed ability in our corporate class always gets equal attention on the mat and we leave feeling invigorated and alive. The instructors are all such positive people and share Beckys great energy. Beckys team is quite simply the best that there is.

    I started my pilates journey with Becky four years ago, where she was teaching group classes at my work. I have a long term knee injury, which had prevented me from doing much exercise at all, and left me feeling quite scared of anything physical. Becky was brilliant in teaching me the basics, as well as modifying exercises for my knee - she is extremely knowledgeable, and incredibly kind too. Four years later, I still attend her classes, and I am so much stronger and fitter thanks to them. I recommend her classes to everyone, they have a wonderful flow, just the right amount of challenge, and they are fun too!
