Jennifer Eldridge

Pilates, Dance

Jen discovered Pilates when it was used as part of her treatment to recover from injuries sustained as a dancer. She was passionate to learn & share this with others after witnessing first hand the restorative benefits of the method.

Pilates as a means of rehabilitation has always been a key area of focus with Jen, whether it is aiding people recover from injury or surgery. She spent two years working for a physiotherapy practice that incorporated Pilates as a treatment method. She has worked with hip replacements, knee & shoulder reconstructions, spinal injuries, fractures, osteoporosis & osteoarthritis.

She loves helping people get out of pain & optimising body strength and mobility.

Pilates is a fantastic medium to correct posture, realign the body, restore balance in muscle groups and promote the integrity & longevity of the joints of the body.

“Every individual is different & I enjoy tailoring each session to take into account the needs of the body in front of me. That involves release tight muscles, strengthen weak muscles, improving posture, co-ordination & balance. That all comes wrapped up in a rewarding & challenging Pilates work out”.

Jen was a professional dancer before opening a successful dance school in Sydney’s inner city. She spent 15 years teaching movement to children & adults through dance. She continues to enjoy teaching movement, but now it is through the Pilates method.
