All Body Control Pilates Teachers and Coney Hill Studio Graduates work to a code of practice, which governs teaching standards, professional ethics and continuing education. The BCPA (Body Control Pilates Association) have a Continuing Professional Development programme whereby teachers are required to keep their knowledge up to date by attending courses and workshops regularly.

Kara – MEd, PGCE, BA (Hons)
Hi I’m Kara and I am passionate about body movement – and in particular, Pilates. I fell in love with movement, and the incredible lengths to which our bodies can go, long before I began my life as a Pilates Teacher.
As a small child I started ballet at The Thompson School of Ballet and at seven I began gymnastics, ultimately competing at National Level. Following a sports injury I eventually found my way to Pilates, reaffirming my love of movement and the astonishing complexities and abilities of the human body.
I have studied Pilates internationally under a variety of highly-skilled specialists. I am especially interested in Hypermobility, Pelvic Health, Pilates in Pregnancy and Pilates in Older Age.
