About.

LET ME HELP YOU.

Welcome to my world of Fitness Pilates!  Thank you for visiting my website.  I really hope you enjoy your time here.

About me

I have been working in the fitness industry since 1997 alongside 2 full time jobs (1993-2002 and 2002-2011)

My previous roles include a Training Manager then Lecturer at The College at Braintree, teaching sport to level 2 and 3 students.

I began my fitness career teaching aerobics, step aerobics, circuits, spinning and aqua classes at private gyms in Chelmsford and Braintree.

In 2013, I became self employed and founded my company, PTS Fitness Pilates Classes Braintree in 2015, serving the Braintree community face to face classes and online via Zoom and Facebook.

I regard myself as an all-inclusive Pilates teacher, and offer a variety of classes to suit everyone regardless of age, gender and ability.

The concept brand I deliver is ‘Fitness Pilates’.

What is Fitness Pilates?

‘Fitness Pilates is a creative celebration of how we can use the wonderful teachings and principals of Joseph Pilates and deliver it in a modern way, encouraging people to move, exercise and become fitter and stronger in a welcoming, nurturing and non-intimating way. There’s a variety of different Fitness Pilates Classes in Braintree, so please make sure to have a look!

I am absolutely passionate about exercise, especially the outdoors.  I love to swim, cycle and walk and am hardly ever indoors.

So, you can see I am a very motivated, energetic person and hope that there is something that will interest you on my website.

Love

What my customers say

Dear Marisa

Thank you for your advice. Shoulder is feeling a bit less painful today. If no improvement over the next week I’ll ask you for the details of your shoulder guys.

So, a year on from starting our lessons with you, we both just wanted to say a big thank you for taking us on & helping us with our flexibility journey.  We both feel the benefits from the classes, I can bend and touch my toes for the first time in years & Bruce has seen an enormous improvement with his knees – thank you!

Lots of love

Anita & Bruce xx

“I started attending Marisa’s Fitness Pilates classes five years ago following my cancer treatment, to improve my balance and help with my fatigue. Marisa is so friendly and welcoming and her classes are tailored for all ages and abilities. There is always an alternative move so that you can work at your own level.

It was a great help during lockdown when Marisa moved her classes onto Zoom so that we were able to continue with our fitness and have a sense of normality. I really enjoy my Monday morning class and feel energised and motivated for the rest of the week. I would definitely recommend Marisa’s classes to everyone.”

Have a lovely Christmas, stay healthy and look forward to seeing you in the New Year

Love

I first started attending Marisa’s fitness Pilates sessions in 2019 after being an avid road runner who had caused a little muscular damage and was trying Pilates to get myself back in the game.

 The classes are extremely invigorating and Marisa herself could not do enough for her attendees. This was paramount during lockdown(s) with the amount of effort she put into her online classes.

She is passionate and driven and you would have to go a long way to find an instructor who would be as selfless as her.

 Highly recommended.

Hi Marisa,

I must tell you that I did enjoy that class I came to in the village hall using one weight, and the last one I did on Zoom last Monday as I felt both of them did push me and I felt quite stiff from both of them.     I do like to feel that I’ve been ‘stretched’ a bit although I joke about the 12 days of Christmas being murder!
