Yvonne Faulkner
Hot HIIT Pilates Teacher
Yvonne started her career as an apprentice jockey, however an unfortunate riding accident meant leaving that behind for a new path. That path led to her current role as a Production Manager within the manufacturing industry… a career she describes as ‘stress city!’
To manage the stress Yvonne took up walking, eventually competing in a number of half, full and ultra- marathons. In March 2023 she completed her 10th Oxfam 100km trail-walker. With all the walking and tramping she felt the need to start stretching and strengthening her muscles. Add to this the hormonal changes that come at a certain time in one’s life (joy joy!) Yvonne had an even greater need to relax her mind.
Seven years ago she walked into her first Bikram class and was hooked, she hasn’t looked back!
Two years ago she was introduced to ‘Hot Hiit Pilates’ by Meghann and Olivia. This led to Yvonne completing her ‘Hot Hiit Pilates’ teacher training in March 2023.
Despite the training pushing her right out of her comfort zone, Yvonne is loving teaching. She has a particular interest in Pilates as medicine for the mature practitioner and for its ability to help with hormonal challenges.
