  • Stuart Christie

    Diploma of Pilates

    Stuart has been a Circus performer, trainer and rigger for many years. Stuart found that during his time as a circus performer many Pilates exercises were useful tools for progressing stunts and tricks.

    “Since delving deeper with Pilates I have found my own quality of movement has greatly improved, along with my understanding of the body. It is the variety of targeted exercises which can flow to the next that interests me the most about Pilates, and how much it helps you walk around in life.”

What People are Saying

“Mat classes at Sublime is the highlight of each Tuesday for me; it is a link to the local community, to women like me.  I learn about the needs of my ageing body at mat classes in a practical way.  I see other women just like me keeping bodies moving and flexible. It is so good to be ‘part’ of something that motivates and inspires me to keep going. I can even get off the floor now with no hands.  Couldn’t do that before. Didn’t know the technique.   After a mat class my connection to my body is evident.  I can feel it, my consciousness of it has doubled.  I go each week and this keeps me going till the next week.  I love the community, the spirt and the practice of what Tahmour and Marguerite so generously offer.

 What people are saying

“I love it! I’ve worked on bodies for nearly 20 years as a remedial therapist and I highly recommend Tahmour. She knows her stuff and is very effective because of it.  She carries a lightness and funniness about her, which is refreshing and encouraging to be around. Each class offers a unique and exciting challenge... I always feel amazing when I leave.”
