Jake qualified as a personal trainer in 2014 and has taught Mat and Reformer Pilates for over a decade, building a full timetable at Breathe Pilates Studio. He now tutors and assesses for Create.
Jake’s journey into the fitness industry began with a lifelong love of sport ranging from football at a young age to rugby and strength training. After qualifying as a Personal Trainer in 2014, he built his career at Romsey Rapids, delivering a wide range of fitness classes while working full-time in another role. Realising his passion lay in movement and coaching, Jake shifted focus and retrained in Pilates after experiencing its benefits first-hand for back pain and limited mobility.
He quickly transitioned to full-time teaching and now works across several local studios, delivering both Reformer and Mat Pilates classes. Known for his inclusive, down-to-earth approach, Jake has played a key role in breaking the stigma around men doing Pilates. He has a strong interest in biomechanics and enjoys integrating strength training principles into his sessions.
Jake joined Breathe Pilates Studio where he became fully booked within a few months and continues to cohost their popular wellness retreats and events. Now a tutor and assessor with Create PT, Jake delivers both Level 3 Mat and Reformer Pilates qualifications, empowering new instructors with the skills and mindset to succeed.
Pilates isn't about doing less. It's about moving better, getting stronger, and building a body that works for you.
