Posted on Ruth WaltonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I tried my first reformer class at Move almost a year ago, just wanting to see what it was all about, but I donβt think I expected the difference it would end up making for me. Almost 12 months later, with classes twice per week and regular 1:1 session with Jenn too, and Iβm now noticeably stronger, more toned and (probably more importantly) I have a way better awareness of how my body moves and works than I ever have before. One of the things that really sets this place apart is Jenn and Charlieβs clinical background, their understanding of anatomy and movement is next level and you can really feel that in the way they teach. they make sure you're training properly, safely, and theyβre great at adapting exercises to suit your individual needs. On top of all that, theyβre just genuinely lovely people. The vibe at the studio is super welcoming, and thereβs a real sense of community. Iβve never found a form of exercise before that I look forward to as much as I do this. Highly recommend!Posted on Nathan AllsopTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Anna and StevenPosted on son oTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had my 1st consultation with Charlie to better understand my pain and potential causes. Clearly what i believed it to be and the actual cause of the pain were quite different. I now have a short treatment plan to resolve the issues. Charlie explained everything thoroughly and gave expert advice for self help.Posted on Tom PeevorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great place to learn BJJ, being a beginner this place provides a very welcoming environment which will help you to settle in and start to push yourself. Everyone who attends are extremely friendly and Charlie (the coach) has an excellent coaching manner to help you learn. He has a cool dog too.Posted on RobynTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The MOST wonderful Pilates studio, I have been a member for almost 6 months now and I could not recommend it enough. It is inclusive, friendly and motivating. Each time I go there is always a different focus and it is always just what I need. As well as this it is always clean, easy to use booking system and they are constantly improving the space. Huge thank you for helping me get back to fitness after children in preparation for my wedding and I am now that addicted that this will be a forever habit for me to have a strong old lady body πͺπ½πͺπ½Posted on RosemaryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend this studio enough! I've been attending both Pilates and jujitsu classes here, and I also benefit from their chiropractic care and sports massage. The owners, Charlie and Jenn, are great βthey are not only professional but also genuine in their approach to health and wellness. The atmosphere is friendly and supportive, making it a perfect place for anyone looking to improve their fitness.Posted on Louise CorbettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely love Move & their reformer Pilates classes. Jenn is a fabulous instructor; friendly, knowledgeable & informative. Sheβs also worked her magic on my dodgy knee & her 1-2-1 instruction is a game changer. The facility is modern, clean, welcoming & friendly. All of the instructors work hard & offer outstanding classes - highly recommend, you wonβt regret it!Posted on A GreenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joined Jujitsu with Charlie almost 3 months ago - great atmosphere and environment where everyone encourages and pushes eachother to do better. Charlie is a great teacher and very helpful, taking time to explain things until you understand. Thank you!!

Having always been active as a youth, Charlie first received chiropractic care to help with the aches and pains associated with bodybuilding training and working as a personal trainer.
After moving to the UK, Charlie spent 5 years training to be a chiropractor at the prestigious Anglo-European Chiropractic College (now AECCUC). He also completed post-graduate training following his chiropractic program with the Royal College of Chiropractic and AECCUC.
When he isn’t working with patients or teaching Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Charlie enjoys spending time with his family. Further, he enjoys keeping active with running, the gym, mountain walking, and DIY.
Jenn spent most of her childhood on horseback enjoying dressage and cross country riding amongst other sporting pursuits. This active childhood led her to receive sports therapy and chiropractic care from the age of 14 for the treatment of hip pain. This experience inspired her to pursue a career in the field.
Jenn has advanced qualifications in sports and remedial massage therapy, dry needling, mat and reformer pilates, and pre-/post-natal pilates instruction. She also holds bachelors degree in Human Science.
When she isn’t working with patients or teaching Pilates, Jenn enjoys spending time with her family. Further, she enjoys keeping active with mountain walking and gardening.
After growing up as an active child with a keen interest in a multitude of sports, Kieran discovered Chiropractic care for injury recovery after studying biology and physical education in sixth form. This interest led him to spend 5 years studying the profession at the highly regarded Welsh Institute of Chiropractic at the University of South Wales.
During his time at university, Kieran was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes which was an experience that transformed his outlook on life and reinforced the critical value of prioritising health. This also gave him first-hand experience with how Chiropractic can provide a broad selection of healthcare options tailored to support people on an individual basis.
When he isnβt working with patients, Kieran has a strong passion for running and training. He spends a lot of time watching many different sports including football, mixed martial arts and athletics. In addition to this, he enjoys his new hobby of taking Jiu Jitsu classes here at MOVE.
Gwen has been active from an early age, starting judo when I was 7. Since then, she has achieved dozens of national medals and has been on GB pathway since she was 15.
This early exposure has led me to my interest in helping people be healthy.
She obtained her degree in Sport and Exercise Therapy at Wolverhampton University as a sport scholar. During her degree, she found interest in female health and went on to complete her dissertation on how the menstrual cycle affects training.
Outside of MOVE, she enjoy keeping active such as walking, especially with her dog, or swimming. She also loves crafts, such as knitting and crochet.
Joy graduated from university in Wales after studying history. She has a keen eye for all things text, thoroughly enjoying reading and creative writing.
During this time, she developed a love for paddleboarding and hiking and grew to appreciate first hand the benefits of regular exercise. This led her to develop an interest in personal health and the impacts which fitness, diet and lifestyle choices can have on an individuals well-being.
In her spare time Joy is an enthusiastic weekend rambler, often exploring a new corner of the Shropshire Hills or Cannock Chase. She also loves to watercolor and is passionate about her (many) houseplants!
Katy has always been active, first put into dance classes at 5 years old and enjoying all sports offered throughout school. Continuing with dance, she gained experience teaching for a variety of ages and enjoyed a year as resident choreographer at a local theatre company. She still continues her training under the guidance of retired Royal Ballet professionals.
As with most dancers, the intensive work came with injuries which was how she was first came to MOVE. Starting with physio appointments and then finding the benefits of regular reformer classes, she was converted and was offered the opportunity to train with Jenn as a reformer instructor.
Katy now teaches regular classes at MOVE. inspired by both her love of movement and the benefits of strength training.
