About
EVOLVE was born from a passion for movement, a desire for flexibility in my own life, and a vision to create a space where people could experience the transformative power of Reformer Pilates.
What started as an idea in our dark, unused garage became a thriving boutique studio, allowing me to step away from the corporate world and build a business that aligns with my passion and values. Now, EVOLVE is expanding into its next exciting chapter!
How it started
- Established in January 2023 as a private boutique Reformer Pilates studio
- Located at our family home in Tysoe, offering exclusive 1:1 sessions
- Created to provide a personalised, premium Pilates experience in an intimate setting
Before
Our dark, depressing garage!
After
My home Pilates Studio vision became a reality!
A bit about me
- Married to Andy – together 10 years (he loves Reformer Pilates too!)
- Mum to Logan (6) & Sofia (3)
- 15 year corporate career in Accounting, Finance & Risk (educated to Masters degree & Chartered Accountant)
- Passionate about health, fitness & wellness
- Business-minded and ambitious, but family is everything – EVOLVE has given me the freedom to balance bot
