<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Maura says;</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Since 1997 I have been teaching group exercise and working in gyms.  In that time I’ve lost count of the number of courses I’ve done, some good, some bad.  I have also worked as a club manager but missed the teaching aspect of fitness, so I have now come full circle</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Following the birth of my daughter (7 years ago) I went self-employed, year by year increasing the number of classes and getting an increase in demand for 1-2-1 sessions.  This was the area I was lacking confidence, skills and knowledge. So much so that when a client presented with a faulty movement pattern I questioned what I could do to help them or, ideally, what the client could do to help themselves.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">I looked at repeating my PT course, but then remembered the iMoveFreely® Instructor workshop I did with Rachel many years earlier, and an amazing exercise called the 4 sign.  So I got in touch and after a couple of conversations, I decided to book on and go for the course due to its content.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">My main area of teaching is Pilates with Biomechanics and 1-2-1. (though I do still like to dabble in the cardio/combat). Following the Biomechanics Coach™ Diploma I have completely changed how I teach and I can’t believe the massive difference the course has made to all aspects of my teaching. I have managed to form a good bond with some local osteopaths and Chiropractors, some of whom attend my classes and all refer clients my way. </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">I believe Pilates/biomechanics/ corrective exercise is my pathway going forward, so I have also completed the L4 Sports Massage course with Mike Grice, Director of Active Skills/ Birmingham Movement Therapy Clinic is also a Master Trainer and Biomechanics Coach™</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">If you are thinking about enrolling on the Biomechanics Coach™ Diploma, then do not hesitate! </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Yes you will be taken outside of your comfort zone!</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Yes you will question what you have learned before!</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">There is definitely no spoon feeding here!</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Just fab content and a chance for self-development.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Achieving the both Biomechanics Coach™ Diploma and the Sports Massage while working and juggling a family, has been slightly challenging at times, but a big personal achievement for me. As for the rest of my achievements,  none on the sporting front I’m afraid, I love to take part but am definitely not a medal winning athlete. However I did award myself a Gold Star for opening up my own little studio with a colleague of mine 18 months ago!!</span></p>
