Katie’s Journey: From Burnout Scientist to Sanctuary creator 

Katie’s path to founding 100 Power Pilates is anything but ordinary. Before Pilates became her passion and calling, she was immersed in the world of science, researching stem cells and colon cancer during her PhD journey. For five long years, she dedicated herself to the demanding and intense work of scientific research, but behind the scenes, Katie was struggling. The pressure and stress took a toll on her mental health, leaving her feeling overwhelmed and burnt out.

It was during these difficult times that Katie first discovered Pilates. In the midst of her PhD, she would escape during lunch breaks, searching for a way to clear her mind and reclaim a sense of peace. That’s when she stepped into her first Pilates class—and everything changed. Each session became more than just a workout; it became her therapy. Pilates offered her a space to breathe, move, and reset, helping her find strength not only in her body but in her mind. It quickly became her sanctuary, a place to reconnect with herself when everything else felt out of control.

Katie soon realised the incredible power Pilates had to heal, both physically and emotionally. What started as a way to cope with stress transformed into a deep passion that she couldn’t ignore. As she continued her PhD, Katie began to envision a new future—one where she could share the therapeutic benefits of Pilates with others who were struggling, just as she had. She created a vision board and set her sights on a dream: to build a warm, welcoming community for Pilates lovers, where people could find support, strength, and peace.

Seven years later, that dream became a reality with the opening of 100 Power Pilates. Katie’s background in science has given her a unique perspective on how the body works, and her passion for movement is grounded in her personal experience of healing and transformation. Katie’s vision has always been about more than just fitness—it’s about creating a space where people can feel seen, heard, and cared for. She believes that Pilates has the power to change lives, just as it changed hers, and she’s committed to helping each and every client discover their own strength and potential.

Client's feedback: "Katie's class is absolutely amazing! It's dynamic, full of love and passion, and always leaves me feeling energised. No matter how down or stressed I feel before, I always walk out feeling so much better. Her classes have a beautiful flow with just the right amount of spicy twists to keep things fun and challenging. Plus, her funny, light-hearted personality makes the experience even more enjoyable. It's hands down the best Pilates class I've ever taken—my favourite part of the week!"

I am a fully qualified Level 3 Pilates Instructor. I started in fitness and nutrition, working as a personal trainer while also teaching aerobics, yoga and pilates. My fascination with movement, recovery and endurance has developed during my career from running a successful Rosemery Conley franchise to teaching WalkActive. I have over 25 years experience in the health and fitness industry and have continued to expand my knowledge and skills by completing my Level 3 Pilates Reformer Teacher Certification, along with a foundation lymphatic drainage workshop, vagus nerve course and an advanced functional health mentoring program. When I am not teaching pilates, I enjoy crossfit, walking my dog, paddle boarding, and have previously competed in Ironman Triathlons, cycling, marathons and long-course endurance events. A personal accomplishment was having cycled Lands End to John O’Groats.

Client's feedback: Rachel is an amazing instructor! She is so calm, kind, and patient, which is exactly what I need as a slow learner. With my age, I need a little extra time to learn each move, and Rachel explains everything thoroughly without rushing. Her friendly and professional approach makes me feel comfortable, and I’ve now become a member because I enjoy her class so much. Highly recommend!
