Sarah Kippax
Director of Achieve Pilates
Sarah has worked teaching exercise for nearly two decades and Pilates specifically for more than ten years. She is committed to making high-quality Pilates accessible to people with different levels of experience, confidence and physical ability.
Her teaching is detailed, encouraging and centred on helping clients understand how their bodies move. Rather than simply demonstrating exercises, Sarah explains the purpose behind them and uses precise corrections to help each person work more effectively.
During her career, Sarah has taught clients seeking to be strong and resilient for sport, return to exercise following injury and remain active, mobile and independent in later life.
Sarah has a particular empathy of how pain can affect confidence, energy and everyday life. Her own Pilates journey began following severe back pain and a debilitating breakdown of core strength after multiple pregnancies and Caesarean sections. Pilates enabled her to rebuild connection, strength and movement to become pain free. This experience continues to shape her approach as she recognises that those managing pain need patience, reassurance and carefully tailored instruction.
Sarah originally trained with STOTT Pilates and has since completed further study with TenEducation. She is continuing her professional development through in-depth training with BASI Pilates. This continued study reflects the Pilates philosophy of always been a student: there is always more to understand, refine and learn through Pilates.
Kiran Kaur
Senior Pilates Instructor
Kiran has worked across dance, sport and fitness for 20 years. Her teaching is shaped by the belief that Pilates should support what you want your body to do – whether that means training, playing sport, lifting weights or moving more confidently through everyday life.
Her own training combines strength and conditioning, gymnastics and Pilates, giving her a practical understanding of how strength, mobility and control work together. She uses Pilates to help clients build strong foundations, move well through a greater range and become more capable both in the gym and in daily life.
Kiran qualified to teach Pilates with ActiveIQ and is also continuing her professional development through in-depth training with BASI Pilates.
Mollie Crute-Morris
Student Pilates instructor
Achieve are delighted to welcome Mollie to the Achieve family. Mollie is qualifying through the BASI Pilates training pathway and will be working alongside the other instructors building practical teaching experience under appropriate guidance and supervision to meet the high standards required.
Mollie first experienced the value of Pilates while dealing with lower-back pain as a teenager. She later returned to Pilates to rebuild strength following the birth of her daughter. These experiences have given her a particular interest in helping people feel stronger and more capable in their bodies.
With a background in swimming and gymnastics, Mollie has also taught movement and exercise as a swimming teacher. This background has given her valuable experience in explaining physical skills, supporting different ability levels and helping people develop confidence through practice.
Our Teaching Approach
Although every instructor brings their own experience and personality, all Achieve Pilates teaching is built around the same principles:
- Individual guidance.
- Accuracy before speed.
- Quality before quantity.
- A welcoming environment in which questions are encouraged.
- Continued learning and professional development.
Our aim is for you to leave each session walking tall with a better understanding of your body.
