Rebekah Reid started learning Pilates when she 15 years old. She trained as a professional ballet dancer in Scotland. Pilates has helped her maintain general health and well being as well as rehabilitating her through injuries such as twisted ankles and bulging discs throughout her ballet career and with pelvic floor issues after having children.
Rebekah received her Pilates training in London with Alan Herdman who was the first Pilates teacher from the Uk to train in New York at Jospeh Pilates Studio in the 1970's. She worked with him in his two studios under his year long mentorship programme. She is trained on all Pilates equipment as well as studying Pilates for Rehabilitation.

She has been teaching reformer studio classes at physiotherapist clinics and matwork group classes on the Central Coast since 2015.
