In 2021 I was diagnosed with Pelvic Organ Prolapse (anterior and posterior wall), I thought my life as a Pilates instructor was over, being told I couldn’t do this and I couldn’t do that by some medical professionals! However, my luck was about to change, whilst on a Pilates course one of the instructors asked if I’d tried Hypopressives, I hadn’t heard of Hypopressives   so no I hadn’t. I was so lucky to then find  Emma Broome , a fabulous Hypopressives instructor and now Master Trainer, living just a few miles from me.

And so my Love of Hypopressives began, I soon realised that Pelvic floor health and exercise coaching was something that I wanted to do more of so trained as an “Adore your Pelvic Floor Coach” and now adding on again with my IHC Level One in Hypopressives.

I have now given up my career job of 37 years to forward my Pilates and Women’s Health Business, Hypopressives is central to my goal of making Women’s health exercise not only functional but also really enjoyable.

Remember you are never too old to follow your passions!

Hi, I’m Lena Simpson. I’m a Pilates and Hypopressives Instructor. I am based in Bidston, Wirral, and I offer small size classes and private tuition in a peaceful garden studio 🌿 I’m trained with Body Control Pilates known for their high standards in teaching. In my work I aspire to help my clients improve their bodies’ alignment and posture, strengthen inner core and balance, and achieve efficient and functional movement. 

Julie has been teaching Pilates for 10 years and practicing it for a lot longer!  She trained with Body Control Pilates in 2015 in Matwork Pilates and has since achieved qualifications in Bone Health, BackCare, Reformer and Hypopressives to name a few.  Julie lives in Hertfordshire and teaches group classes and one-to-one lessons in and around Harpenden.  She also teaches Hypopressives one-to-one in her studio along with running courses online.  

Julie is a certified Hypopressives instructor with over 23 years’ experience in Pilates and movement therapy. Originally trained at the Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance, she worked professionally as a dancer and choreographer across Europe before qualifying in Pilates in 2002.

Over the last decade, I have gained immense knowledge about our bodies and how the pelvic floor interacts with emotions, stress, environment, sleep, and diet. As one of the top and most experienced trainers worldwide, I have trained many of the trainers in the UK and globally.

I am one of the only Master Trainers in the UK. Unable to train locally, I travelled to Spain to learn, overcoming my fear of flying. The impact Hypopressives had on me was so profound that I had to learn to coach it and help others. Together with other Master Trainers from across the world, we founded the International Hypopressive Council to bring expertise to your local area.

Join me in becoming part of the solution to one of the biggest health challenges facing women today.

Ten years ago, I was struggling with prolapse, feeling scared of my own body and limited by conventional advice that just wasn't working.Discovering hypopressives changed everything – it gave me back my confidence, my movement, and my life.Now, as one of the few Level 3 Master Hypopressive Trainers in the UK, I'm passionate about training more professionals to share this transformative practice. Because when we understand how to help women reconnect with their bodies through breath and posture, we're offering hope where there often feels like none.
