"Stott Pilates have taken the original exercises that Joseph Pilates pioneered in the 1920's and have modified them according to contemporary developments in the fields of Biomechanics and Physiotherapy. Their standards are very high so as a certified instructor, I have to update my knowledge on an annual basis, otherwise, I lose my certification". - Fiona Woodruffe
