Naturopath + Pilates Instructor

About me

As well as general fitness, my Pilates specialties include private sessions and small, personalised group classes.

I provide individual attention tailored to your needs, with gradual and timely progression.

I also work with clients pre- and post-operatively for knee, hip, shoulder, and back surgery and ongoing pain management to support recovery and strength.

The benefits of this style of Pilates classes are that you can work at your own level to achieve your goals in a small friendly environment. Your technique is constantly supervised and revised as needed.

Why Naturopathy AND Pilates?

Naturopathy makes sense to me as it looks at the whole person and works with the body’s innate ability to heal and restore balance.

I chose Pilates as my preferred form of movement because it strengthens the body, improves posture and flexibility, and builds core stability. It’s a safe and adaptable practice that helps prevent injuries, supports recovery, and enhances overall fitness — making it suitable for all ages and fitness levels.

Pilates also provides an excellent foundation to prepare and maintain the body for any sport, activity, or everyday function.

Testimonials

"Sue is a great teacher, guiding you through all the different exercises wit patience and grace, customising your sequences as your physical situation changes. I had a frozen shoulder last year and with Sue's sensitive and thoughtful guidance (along with some acupuncture and osteopathic treatment elsewhere) it was completely healed in half the time it normally takes. Frozen shoulder is a mysterious ailment, comes from nowhere and can last up to a year and a half, or more, so I was stoked to have it all better in a matter of months. I can't recommend Pilates for Wellbeing enough, if you're thinking about trying Pilates out, this is the place to go :-)"

"I've been benefitting from Sue's pilates instruction for many years now. As result I have kept my core and back in good health such that I have prevented injuries, like back issues which I suffered from a long time ago Without regularly attending pilates sessions I would have needed to spend money at health professionals, like physiotherapists. I'm in my 60s and enjoy riding my bike and walking without any aches or pains thanks to Sue and her pilates sessions"

"Pilates classes by Sue Larkin are great Sue is attentive and professional in her approach and has genuine care and regard for her clients"

- Alan Jones

"Sue is kind, patient and observant pilates instructor. I'd done some group pilates classes in the past, but my one on one with Sue was a much better experience. I learned a lot about some areas where I'm weak and tight, and came away with some useful exercises that I can continue to use at home. Thanks Sue"

"Sue Larkin's Pilates classes are excellent in assisting me with my scoliosis. Her expertise is superb, and her welcoming personality makes her class, that could be a burden for me, a pleasure to attend."

- Sylvia

"I love seeing Sue for Pilates. My body feels so much more mobile Sue understands what my body needs as I get older, and through her easy explanations I now have more confidence in the way I move, stand an express myself without injury. I understand how to work with my breath and core to move into correct alignment when standing, lengthening my spine and reducing the collapse that can happen when tired. Sue's knowledge is inspiring as she adapts to what my body needs each time."

- Fiona

"I have been seeing Sue for private Pilates sessions for 5 months and all I can say is “amazing”!!. Having done different forms of Pilates and been wit many Pilates teachers over the years, Sue is a modern breath of fresh air. The sessions are very nurturing as Sue creates a motivating, kind, caring and attentive environment to make you feel at ease. She has an in-depth knowledge of Pilates and the body that allows her to best work with you and your body holistically to meet your specific needs and goals. After th sessions I am full of energy, I look and feel amazing, and I am injury free!! I highly recommend Sue."

- Nat

"So good to stretch out after being at the desk all day - Sue is very attentive to my personal needs and I always finish the session feeling new"

- Emily

"I have been a client of Pilates for Wellbeing for 7 years now. Sue is a very competent and patient instructor who will create a programme for your own personal needs. She has private sessions or group sessions, of which there will not be more than 3 clients, so that she can still give you the personal attention required. For those of us who find the usual gym workouts a littl too taxing, Pilates is a good alternative, being a gentler form of exercise, hence the majority of her clients are the over 50's. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Sue"
