Hello

Yukiko Yamazaki- Roberts
​
With a background in education, I am passionate about lifelong learning and seeing real change and progression in others. My journey has taken me from a degree in language teaching, teaching in the UK and International schools and now Pilates. My training started with BASI and I qualified as a MAT instructor. Working within this system over the last couple of years I started to consider the next level of training and how I would be able to provide the most structured and applicable methods of Pilates training for my clients. This has led to me to complete a Classical Pilates Comprehensive training certification (500+ hours teacher training programme) with Amy Kellow @ Everybody Pilates in 2024. This has been an enriching experience and has provided the necessary technical underpinning to successfully guide clients in their successful Pilates journeys. I also completed Pre & Postnatal Pilates instructor certification with Basi in 2024.
My personal development through Pilates started after having 3 children. I kept myself fit, I took regular yoga classes and HIIT training and was in good shape and flexible but once I tried Pilates class, I realised my core wasn’t as strong as I had hoped and how this was the exercise and movement I had been missing. Since day 1, I fell in love with Pilates and the transformational effect it had on my body. My core is now stronger than ever and my overall body and movement continue to improve with regular training. I love to share my passion for Pilates and help other people gain more strength in their own body and move better.​​
