One-to-One Pilates Therapy Folkestone and Hythe
With Kent’s only Level-4 qualified Pilates Exercise Therapist
One-to-One Pilates Therapy Folkestone and Hythe. Kent’s leading exercise professional Jane Mackenzie offers one-to-one Pilates therapy sessions in your own home within the Folkestone and Hythe areas, or via video call. A one-to-one Pilates session is a great way to introduce yourself to this effective and important form of exercise, or for those with complex or long-term health conditions. They are also ideal for those who are unable or do not wish to attend group classes. You might wish to undertake regular one to one Pilates sessions, or have just a single session and then join in with one of Jane’s regular Pilates Classes, or perhaps practice at home, guided by our Pilates Exercise Video Database.
Jane Mackenzie is one of the few professionals holding the UK’s highest level award in ‘Pilates Exercise Therapy’ – The application of Pilates within a therapeutic or rehabilitative setting.
“My good news is that I had my biennial DXA scan which usually shows a decline in bone density. But this time it has actually shown a small increase for the first time! I put it down to the strengthening exercises in Pilates. You are doing such good work, and our granddaughters still shout ‘Pilates’ when we visit!”
“Having osteoporosis meant that I needed a specialist one-to-one session to gain advice on safe ways to participate in Pilates. I found Jane very enthusiastic and knowledgeable (see her list of qualifications!) She was able to guide me through methods of adapting Pilates exercises so that I now feel comfortable and confident that I will benefit greatly from Pilates without taking any unnecessary risks. Highly recommended to anyone in a similar position.”

“Thank you, Jane, for the expert pilates instruction you provided prior to my skiing holiday. The four one-to-one sessions were immensely helpful. I appreciate that you tailored a programme specifically to get me ready for my ski holiday. Not only did you spend the hour providing instruction, but you also kindly provided written details of all the necessary moves. This reference source is, and has been, invaluable. Your instruction meant that I went skiing with a stronger core and better balance after just three weeks’ work-up. I was able to ski for longer and with more confidence. I had no significant falls or accidents and firmly believe that this is directly attributable to my improved balance, strength and flexibility, thanks to your help. Thank you from Belinda (the happy and flexible skier)!”
Online One-to-One Pilates Sessions
With Jane Mackenzie – by Live Video Link
As an optional alternative to face-to-face Pilates sessions, some of my one-to-one Pilates clients are currently continuing their fantastic work with me through live video-link sessions. This works really well for those who live too far away for me to travel to them, or those who need/prefer to shield during the pandemic. Video link sessions are exactly the same as face-to-face, apart from seeing each other on a screen as we work together. Read all about my one-to-one sessions below, and contact me if you have any questions. (For the video link, you can choose whichever channel you prefer: Skype, Messenger, WhatsApp, Viber, Facetime, Zoom, or I can of course suggest.)

Do you have health issues that make exercising difficult?
It is unfortunate that less experienced instructors sometimes advise clients against undertaking Pilates, simply because they lack the knowledge necessary to adapt their routines to safely accommodate them. One example of this is clients with osteoporosis (fragile bones due to reduced bone density).
Exercise safely practiced, however, is essential for people with osteoporosis in order to strengthen the bones, reduce the risk of injury and improve functional ability. An experienced instructor such as Jane will be able to show you how to modify your Pilates routine in order to exercise safely.

"As an Osteopath, I understand the need for the body to remain strong and well balanced in order to help maintain health. I recommend my patients to Jane because she too understands these principles and is so effective in implementing them in her pilates sessions. This ensures that participants feel well looked after and attain the best outcomes. I have attended a couple of times and intend to go as much as possible. I couldn't recommend Jane highly enough!"
“Dear Jane, thank you so much for all your help, encouragement and support. I know I am much better position going into this op that I was before our first lesson. You are so good at what you do, and also such a lovely caring person. I really feel you’ve ‘gone the extra mile’ for me many times, and really appreciate it.”
