Lisa Paterson, studio owner

Lisa is from a health and fitness background originally. She spent the early part of her career working within the Fitness industry as a Gym Instructor, and later as a Personal Trainer. She then went on to work as the Fitness Manager at a popular Health Club in the local area for a number of years. Her initial reasons for starting Pilates were born out of a wish to continue exercising after sustaining a number of injuries, and undergoing a number of periods of injury rehabilitation. Following advice given by an Osteopath, she decided to try Pilates in order to strengthen some areas of weakness and address some muscular imbalances. Pilates had a profound effect on Lisa and she attributes the physical improvements she made, and her subsequent return to physical fitness, to the power of Pilates. After a period of reflection, she made a conscious decision to change career direction and train to teach Pilates.

Lisa is passionate about Pilates and is an eternal student of the method. She has been teaching Classical Pilates for over 10 years and continues to train and develop her skills further. The Pilates Room came from very humble beginnings. Lisa initially rented an extremely small room within a local gym and saved every spare penny she earned in order to be able to make her first purchase from Gratz, a Designer Reformer with Half Cadillac Conversion. The Pilates Room has grown steadily over recent years, moving twice into larger premises, but Lisa gets as excited now about adding to her studio apparatus collection, as when she placed her first order with Gratz. She is incredibly proud to be the owner of the First and Only fully Gratz equipped Pilates studio in Ayrshire.
