SURREY HILLS CLASSICAL RETREAT DAYS 

Small group mentorship days

For Pilates teachers

INTIMATE. INSPIRING. TRANSFORMATIVE.

This summer

I'm opening my home studio in the Surrey Hills

to a very small group of Pilates teachers for a full day of Classical Pilates.

Proper depth. Good food. Beautiful surroundings.

Two days to choose from. Four places on each.

You are very welcome to both.

Not a course, but a day immersion

Practical, Personal, Supportive

More than a day of learning exercises, this is where I share

30 years years of dedication, mastery and practice with a select and intimate group.

A NOTE FROM... 

Deborah

I've been practising Pilates since I was 17. My mother, a ballet dancer, handed me the method long before it was fashionable.

I've spent 30 years practicing, teaching, refining my own movement, and going back to the source material to understand why this system works the way it does. My initial contemporary Pilates training was with Body Control in London in 2001, when they first opened their doors. I've taught in London's most respected studios, worked with bodies of every ability, and built a home practice I genuinely love.

These retreat days are something I've never offered before. Small, intentional, and built around genuine transmission rather than information delivery.

Four of you. One day. My cosy studio.

I can't wait.

I can't wait to work with you

DAY ONE

CLASSICAL MAT

A full day working through the Classical mat repertoire as a complete system, not just a sequence of exercises. We'll explore why the repertoire is ordered the way it is. How the exercises connect and build on each other. How to teach this work with clarity and confidence at any level.

This is not a workout. It's a study. A proper, unhurried, genuinely wonderful day with the method you love.

We'll begin with Coffee and a plan. We'll discuss what you want to get out of the day so you can progress in your practice and career. Then dive in.

We'll look at every single classical mat exercise so you leave with deep understanding and a new level of appreciation for the method.

What's included:

✨ Full day in my home studio, Surrey Hills ✨ Small group, four teachers maximum ✨ A proper lunch ✨ Detailed notes to take home

BONUS: Classical Mat Mastery online course, (worth £399) ✨

Places are strictly limited to four.

Where do I begin?! this has opened my eyes to the magic of the authentic Pilates method

DAY TWO

CLASSICAL REFORMER

The Classical Reformer repertoire has a logic to it that changes everything once you see it.

The full classical reformer consists of approximately 40 exercises. We'll work through the accessible, teachable core together - aiming to learn up to half of the repertoire on the day. And believe me when I say...there will be plenty to keep you and your clients happy for YEARS to come. Understanding and integrating these foundational exercises is essential to progress with integrity.

We will keep to the order, but cherry pick the exercises which make up the foundational and intermediate work, leaving the super advanced exercises for future discovery. 

You'll take turns on the machine (nb, my little studio houses just one reformer), ensuring you feel the work and observe it. 

Whether you are contemporary trained, classically trained or only currently teach mat, this day will be about revealing the true magic of Classical reformer. The real deal.

You'll come away with a clear understanding of choreography, intention, form and how the exercises fit into the system.

What's included:

✨ Full day of Classical Reformer in my home studio, Surrey Hills ✨ Small group, four teachers maximum ✨ A proper lunch ✨ Detailed notes to take away ✨ Follow up call to check in and discuss progress and questions

Places per day are strictly limited to four.
