about
Hello, I am Claire,
I am the founder and lead instructor of HB Studio. I previously worked in stressful roles sitting at a desk all day which impacted my posture, overall health and self esteem. Having tried many other exercise regimes, I tried Pilates and fell in love with it and chose to change career to be an instructor. Since doing Pilates, my posture, self confidence and overall wellbeing has improved. I enjoy the connection with the community that teaching Pilates brings and hope this inspires other to give Pilates a try.
Pilates works your whole body and is gentle on your joints. As I’ve grown older, I’ve realised that’s important. I still have many decades of life ahead of me, and I need my body to last!
Moving for Life
It is important to work on mobility and stability. Both these are covered in our Pilates classes.
Building Strength and Stability
I realise that my mind, body and my breath are all connected. When I work on my body and my breath during a Pilates session, it lifts and supports my mental wellbeing too.
Connecting Body, Breath, and Mind

It’s all about you, and what you need
My goals and approach as a Pilates instructor
01
I check in with you before we start, to make sure I know about any injuries or issues.
02
I actively monitor your alignment during exercise, to ensure that your muscles are getting the most out of the exercise and to prevent injuries.
03
Above all, I make it fun. Good music, and a welcoming atmosphere.
