About Me:
Your Guide to Transformative Movement
Who's ready to hit the Pilates trail with me?
Well, hello there! I'm super excited to be here in this breathtaking valley we get to call home. I'm Siobhan Paton, your friendly neighbourhood Pilates guide.
With over 30 years of twists, turns, and Pilates under my belt, I'm here to help you navigate the landscape of getting fit / living fit or even better: feeling the best you can in mind body spirit...
I've got triple certifications in Pilates, a stamped passport to training from across the globe, and itch to keep delving in and learning. Stamps include the Pilates Centre as an Advanced Program Graduate, The Mentorship Program and Licensed Teacher Trainer, a BFA in Dance Performance and Pedagogy. I'm also a certified coach in Peak Performance and Flow State Principles, Yoga, Biophilic Design, Nature-led Therapy. These days my schooling is on my meditation cushion, out in nature and with the community of wise people around me.
And you know what? Any true wisdom, isn't what’s hanging on the wall. It’s the tales, trials, and victories of the numerous individuals I've had the privilege to accompany on their journey that've taught me the most. I treasure the lessons learnt from those who've battled their way to their version of success. My own personal trail of adventure, resilience, and recovery has shaped the way I teach.
So I know that sometimes stepping onto the Pilates mat can feel like standing at the foot of a daunting mountain. But don't worry! I'll be right there with you, guiding you through each twist, turn, and breath. Together, we'll carve out a Pilates trail that's as unique and adventurous as you are..
Kind Words
“Siobhan is a fantastic Pilates teacher and Teacher Trainer. She has an unrivalled passion not only for Pilates and the method as a whole but also how it relates to each individual. She is a truly magical presence and I feel extremely lucky to have worked closely with her.”
Emma Burnett
“Siobhan Paton genuinely changed my life, and that of my daughters. We all, finally, understand our crazy bodies AND ARE PROUD OF THEM now. She makes it fun. She has genuine witchy powers."
Caitlin Moran
“Siobhan helped me see the things I personally needed the most work on and with her expert guidance she showed me ways to be my best and most authentic self whilst teaching. She has the talent to open up the little subtleties of each exercise and put them in new light so that you become really curious as a teacher and this has helped me avoid burn out and boredom. The course was though but also an engaging and fun process and I feel so much more confident both in Pilates as a method and in myself as teacher than I ever had.”
Mariann Benko
“When I first met Siobhan, she explained the most fundamental aspects of human movement to me in a way that no-one else had done before. Siobhan is an incredible teacher and every time I study with her, I learn something new and important, human movement. I used to do yoga and I can now practice advanced movements much more safely due to my Pilates knowledge. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
