It's great to have Matt Marney back with us at Body Control Pilates for a new mat-based masterclass!

This new class focuses on 'volumes and combinations' and looks at how we can increase muscle strength and hypertrophy through repeating patterns and combining exercises. Matt also looks at how we can improve concentration through movement and bring our attention back to our bodies.

Matt Marney has been working in the well-being space for over 20 years. He is a personal trainer, group exercise/Pilates instructor and meditation teacher. This unique blend and experience give’s Matt an appreciation and understanding of the mind body connection and its role in promoting optimal health, wellbeing and performance.

Matt began his training with Body Control Pilates in 2013, completing both our Matwork and Studio Equipment courses, and is now one of our Matwork Certification Course tutors. He also runs other development courses where he shares his experience with movement teachers and fitness professionals. This role ensures Matt is up to date with the latest research and developments in the industry and he delivers this knowledge with passion and enthusiasm.

After training hundreds of clients over the years, Matt realised the same misconceptions about health and wellbeing came up time and again therefore he decided to start a corporate wellbeing company, Wellness Education Dubai in the hope he could educate and motivate more people. He realised taking the right information and motivation to groups at the workplace could be more impactful and he enjoys educating and inspiring groups to become empowered and create agency (for individuals) to make real change.

If you want to sample this passion and enthusiasm then take a listen to Matt's podcast which is another vehicle Matt uses to educate and motivate people more people.The Matt Marney Podcast is available on apple and Spotify.
