LARISSA BOLLIGER
Pilates Guru
I am a qualified FitPro registered level 3 Pilates Instructor and Personal Trainer. I hold The Thoughtful Body Mama’s Pilates Pregnancy and Postnatal Postgraduate Qualification and a level 3 Award in Supporting Pre and Postnatal clients with Exercise and Nutrition. I also hold a certificate in Barre Pilates Method Training, Pilates for Common Orthopaedic Conditions.
I am the Lead Pilates instructor at Medineeds Health and Wellness in Taunton where I deliver sessions for one to two clients, I work with physiotherapists, osteopaths and podiatrists to ensure smooth rehabilitation after injury or surgery.
​
My passion is to help people, everyone is different and everyone is seeking fitness for different reasons. I believe that movement is medicine and consistence is key. I also believe that successful exercise should combine a strong body and a strong mind. Pilates focuses on a strong muscle to mind connection which makes each movement very powerful. Therefore I am a firm believer in the power of Pilates for so much more than just fitness, it is a tool to aid complete physical and mental wellbeing.
​
We are all at different levels of fitness and exercise and I’m here to help you reach your personal goals.

CLASSES & TRAINNING
All my classes combine a postural and core setup, warm up, balance exercises, standing cardio with weights, mat exercises and a cool down.
​
I run a full weekly online program of classes, which include Pilates, Barre Pilates and High Intensity Power Pilates. I offer in person classes for both Ante and Postnatal, Pilates for all abilities and Barre Pilates. My classes are suitable for all ages and abilities. I offer one to one personal training sessions either online or in person.
​
I also work alongside a core group of Health Professionals at Medineeds Health & Wellness, where I offer one to one Pilates sessions. These classes can be very beneficial if you having physiotherapy treatment for any injuries, spinal or muscular discomfort or related issues. I can give general advice on nutrition and exercise.
​
At La Pilates, I design my classes to help strengthen, tone and improve your performance and flexibility through a series of mobility and movement exercises. This happens in a relaxing, inspiring and friendly atmosphere.
​
My aim is to help you to move, look & feel fabulous!
