Meryl trained as a dancer and actress from a young age; she has many LAMDA qualifications in acting and went on to complete a BA (Hons) Degree in Dance. Unfortunately in her final year she became injured due to many years of extreme training in Ballet and Jazz.
When she was told she could no longer dance to a professional standard she turned to Pilates to help with her injuries and has never looked back. She found her body changed in ways she could never imagine. She became stronger and more internally connected than she ever was with her dancing.
This experience encouraged her to train with Body Control Pilates, and Meryl now teaches Pilates fulltime. She is passionate about using Pilates to help prevent injuries, particularly in young people.
Meryl teaches several very popular matclasses and is also available for private lessons on the Reformer.
