HI. I'M MEINIR

Meinir Ann - Vocalist, Singing Teacher and Pilates Teacher

I discovered Pilates 20 years ago when I lived in London. I've always had an interest in movement and fitness, having grown up dancing and enjoying sport at school. I studied Music and Sport at University and then worked as a gym and circuit training instructor in my early 20's.

I continued to attend Pilates classes after moving to Sydney, learning about the method and it's benefits by attending many different classes. I was fascinated, and I decided to take the plunge and do my teacher training after the birth of my second child. I trained at Pilates International Training Centre in Sydney, gaining a Cert IV in matwork instruction (Equivalent to a UK level 3). I then taught at Pilates International's studio in Pymble, New South Wales, where I gained invaluable experience both on the mat and on the studio equipment.

 

When I moved back to Wales in 2015 I taught at Cardiff Pilates Studio and covered classes at Nuffield and V Pilates. I established MAT Pilates for You in 2017, teaching at community halls and venues, but of course 2019 changed the way we all did things, and I launched online Pilates classes. As a result of that change I've opened MAT Pilates & Singing Studio, where I now teach online, and small group classes in person. I continue to teach Chair Pilates at Emporium Studios in Llandow, Vale of Glamorgan.

 

I'm always learning through continuing professional development. I teach mat Pilates with small props, barre Pilates, chair Pilates and Pilates for kids. From May 2025 I'll be adding reformer, wall tower, spine corrector and eventually a wonder chair to my studio set up.

"Weekly one-to-one Pilates sessions with Meinir have strengthened my core, freed up my lower spine and improved my overall alignment. I have learned how to use equipment such as the foam roller, the magic circle and the soft ball to alleviate stiffness in my body and to improve my suppleness. I would highly recommend her, she really knows her stuff."
