About Zoe
ZAPilates is a boutique Pilates studio in Caterham, Surrey run by Zoe McCready. Zoe is a former professional dancer who discovered Pilates after suffering a serious prolapsed disc injury. Pilates has transformed her life and she is now passionate about helping others. Zoe is a Stott Certified Instructor and will be working alongside colleague Louise Mulcahy who is trained in the Classical technique.
About the retreat
This fun, challenging and restorative retreat will feature 6 hours of Pilates (or Total Barre classes) looking at both the Stott and Classical methods and how they compare and compliment each other. The classes are designed to be suitable for all ages and abilities. We will focus on posture, strength and flexibility using some small props to help proprioceptive feedback to consolidate your technique. There will be additional classes for those working at an advanced level and other workshops including dance and voice to create the richest possible experience. Join ZAPilates for our no-nonsense, great fun, relaxing and inclusive weekend retreat.
