23m
We are delighted to welcome Brenda to Body Control Pilates Central with her first workout, 'Fun-ctional Variations'.
This workout focuses on the functional patterns we use most regularly in daily life. The aim is to challenge & increase range of movement in the sagittal plane with increased flexion at the hips.
If you have knee problems, Brenda provides suggestions to assist you. However, please listen to your body and skip any exercises which cause you discomfort.

Brenda trained as a dancer at London Contemporary Dance School and has performed as both a contemporary and hip hop dancer professionally. She was introduced to Pilates at Dance College and it helped her throughout her dance career to recover from injuries including an achilles tendon rupture. It also helped to prepare and repair her body during both of her pregnancies.
Brenda completed her Pilates teacher training with Body Control Pilates in 2017 and her thirst for knowledge of the body and movement continues to inform her teaching and benefits her clients with what she continues to bring into the studio.
