Jane Shields Clinical Personal Trainer Pilates Instructor

Jane is a highly qualified and inspirational clinical Pilates teacher. Her classes are always enjoyable and fun yet focussed and suitably challenging. She has been amazing at adapting the classes to accommodate me after major emergency abdominal surgery. I am recovering well and gaining strength and flexibility with her input.

Jane has the rare and wonderful skill of bringing the very best out of everyone! She is extremely enthusiastic about Pilates and tailored physical training, and she makes wonders in how fast her clients progress in physical health and getting fit, no matter if they have physical issues, she would adapt the exercises to fit everyone. It is also very hard not to smile in her presence :)

I have been going to Jane's Pilates and HIIT classes for a long time and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is very passionate about what she does, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She writes a new plan for every single class so there is lots of fun and variety and I particularly like her focus on fitness at any age as I'm now approaching the menopause. She is an inspiration!

I have been doing Pilates for over 10+ with Jane and her classes are fresh and motivating every time. Her knowledge of Pilates is incredible, her small intimate classes are perfect to be able to give you a 1-1 feel.. I come away from her classes feeling energised.

I would highly recommend Jane as a personal trainer, group and Pilates trainer. She is clearly very passionate about her work and has extensive and wide ranging knowledge of anatomy and physiology. Jane is very motivating but in a responsible and considerate manner, she will personally focus on any weak areas with the view of building strength, even in larger group session. She can push for extra effort in a session without using 'bootcamp' techniques. I have been a client of Jane's both in HIT training group sessions and Pilates for several years. Like many other members of Jane's group I have experienced the buzz after every session, both mentally and physically. Many thanks Jane. .

Jane is the best ambitious personal trainer, Pilates teacher and warm kind lady that I have met. I first met Jane a good few years back for a one -one Pilates sessions to sort out a painful muscle imbalance, she made any moves adaptable and personalised. She would make me believe in my self to be adventurous and willing to undertake new and daring moves that would only improve my overall strength , Jane would make sure I was ok and improving at all times. After feeling confident and ready , I’ve moved in to the class sessions. I’ve also had a few one to one weight training which I really enjoyed, Jane even went to the extra mile again and showed me the gym equipment! She also gives out free advice on nutrition and asking any questions is never a bother. Thanks so much Jane I look forward to your class every week. Jane has a Strong compassionate-desire for achievement with all her clients.

Jane has been teaching me Pilates for the last 15 years which is a testament in its own right. Her approach takes account of all abilities and really helps keep everything moving, I cannot recommend her enough.

Following a spinal fusion for a degenerative back at L5/S1 in 2009 I was recommended by my consultant to go to Therapeutics Southampton for my rehabilitation. I was introduced to Jane for PT who has taken a huge amount of time and patience weekly to enable me to improve core strength which has included PT, weights, Pilates and HIT. She is an excellent trainer, motivator with a great sense of humour who constantly challenges me and will adapt a session if I'm struggling. She has given me confidence, been a real support and taught me that exercise is key in maintaining my back and posture. I cannot speak highly enough of her and have no hesitation in recommending Jane.

I first came across Jane 3 years ago as a clinical personal trainer. She is fantastic at getting to know your specific sport and tailoring a programme to your needs including dynamic stretches and strength conditioning. She spots the smallest of imbalances between left and right of your body and refines technique to realign, strengthen and prevent future problems. Got a great energy and a real inspiration. Highly recommend her as a 1-2-1 personal trainer for the athlete who wants to improve technique to strengthen, increase aerobic capacity, become more flexible and prevent injury.

Of course I'll be bias as Jane's my sister. 💚 With years of experience and a extensive knowledge of fitness, health and wellbeing, Jane has been an inspiration and continues to advise me on strength programes, pilates, nutrition, gut-health and even growing your own veg. Thank you fir everything you do xx

I have been attending Jane's Pilates classes for over a year now starting from having no experience and aged over 65. They have provided me with a new approach to exercise and flexibility in a small class size and mixed age ranged environment and I would and frequently do recommend them to friends and family.
