Welcome to Avaia Pilates & Wellness

Hi, I’m Lynsey — a passionate and enthusiatic Pilates instructor currently in the final stages of completing my Level 3 Mat Pilates qualification.

My Pilates journey started as a side interest but truly came to life in 2024 when I discovered Reformer Pilates — and I haven’t looked back since. After years of struggling with lower back and hip pain, it’s the only form of exercise that has significantly improved my mobility and reduced my discomfort. Pilates has helped me feel stronger, more balanced, and more at peace in my body, and I’m passionate about helping others experience those same benefits.

I’ve always led an active lifestyle — from running and cycling to yoga, resistance training, and HIIT — but Pilates offers something unique: a powerful blend of strength, mobility and calm. I believe movement should be enjoyable and empowering, not intimidating, so I hope to bring a fun, open and down-to-earth style to every class!

I'm currently completing Reformer pilates training and I am looking forward to adding Reformer classes to my schedule in the coming months. Looking further ahead, I’ll soon be embarking on my Level 4 certification which will allow me to offer specialised programmes for pre- and post-natal clients, as well as those managing orthopaedic conditions.

I’m incredibly excited about what’s to come and can’t wait to welcome you to the mat!
