Olivia’s longstanding passion for women’s health research has culminated in many years in academia. She has an MSc in Human Nutrition, and an MSc in Women and Children’s Health, and is currently working towards her PhD at King’s College London, assessing the effects of a dietary intervention in improving nocturnal glycemic in women with gestational diabetes.
Alongside her academic pursuits, Olivia has been practicing Pilates for over a decade (to counteract the long periods spent sitting at a desk!) and has been teaching Pilates since 2018.
Olivia is a firm believer in the benefits of mindful movement for both the body and the mind and aims to empower as many people as possible to become stronger and healthier through Pilates.
Her holistic approach to maintaining health incorporates the importance of fuelling, moving, and resting the body effectively. Expect challenging and varied workouts focusing on form, technique and breathing. Olivia aims to make everyone in her class feel comfortable and provides everyone with the technical adjustments they may need to get the most from the workout.
