Fiona Carle

Fiona graduated with a BSc in Physiotherapy from Glasgow Caledonian University in 1993. She moved to Surrey in 1994, and has worked in the NHS and the private sector, specialising in Musculoskeletal Injuries and Sports Injuries. She has worked with professional and amateur sports teams and at sporting events. In 2012, she undertook training with the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI), and started teaching Modified Pilates Classes. She is a fully certified matwork instructor with APPI, a member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) and is registered with the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC).

Originally developed in Australia and now practised the world over, the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI) method encompasses three core areas: pain, pathology (injury) and function. Each Pilates movement has been analysed based on these three core areas in order to determine how it can best improve functioning of the body as a whole.

This means that the APPI Method is much more than just a way of toning a person’s physique, but is a research based, clinical application of improving the way a person moves and functions in their everyday life.

In addition to teaching and practising Pilates, Fiona enjoys running, cooking and spending time with her family.
