Director & Lead Instructor

Nicci Rowlands

Following a back injury, the Director of PilatEASE UK Nicci Rowlands, ended up with a bulging disc, sciatica along with hip, leg and knee pain. This led Nicci down the path of specialising in Pilates for therapy and wellness.

Qualifying as a Pilates Reformer Trainer changed Nicci’s whole way of training. Back Care Pilates and Pilates for Wellness are her absolute passion.

Nicci continues to train in therapeutic Pilates and her classes are perfect for beginners and those who need extra support. There are also classes at the studio which will challenge those who are further along in their wellness journey.
