Hey, I’m Rachel — founder and main instructor at Cove.
I’m a qualified STOTT Merrithew Pilates instructor, teaching both Reformer and Mat Pilates, and a certified Yoga teacher with Siddhi Yoga India. During the warmer months, I also teach Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP) and kayaking, qualified through ASI (Academy of Surfing Instructors).
Alongside Cove, I run SUP4, a coastal wellness business that brings movement to you in many forms — indoors, outdoors, and on the water.
With over 10 years of teaching experience, I love creating sessions that feel supportive, inclusive, and enjoyable. My yoga classes are hands-off, designed to support sensory needs and encourage mindful movement, while my Pilates sessions are hands-on, with guided adjustments and the use of props to help you move safely and effectively.
It’s really important to me that everyone feels welcome when they arrive and great about themselves when they leave. A huge part of building a wellness business, for me, is making it as inclusive as possible — I want everyone who wants to try movement or wellness to feel that there’s a space for them here.
Whether you join me in the studio or out in nature, my aim is to help you move joyfully, feel energised, and leave with a happy heart.
