Meet the teacher: Fiona Brook

new teacher new year
 
Made By Movement has a NEW TEACHER. I have wanted to add more teachers to MBM for a while but I wanted them to 1. fit my vibe, and fit into our community 2. be a physio 3. be an amazing teacher... sooo not a tall order at all! Let me tell you, the studio is growing and Fi is the first one to join (with hopefully more to come). 
 
I wanted you all to be able to get to know her outside of the classes of her's you'll take, so I sat down with her an asked some questions. But first, lets do an introduction. 
 
Fi, tell us about yourself!
 
Hi, my name is Fiona. I’m a Physiotherapist and Pilates Instructor. Born and bred in Yorkshire. When I’m not in clinic or the studio, I’ll be outside!

My main passions are:
* running
* hiking with my two gorgeous doggies, Barney and Pippin
* riding my horse, Guinness
* skiing
* wild swimming (new summer obsession!)
* cycling (warm weather only!!)
 
You have accomplished a lot in a short space of time, becoming a physio and then working through the pandemic, teaching Pilates, and creating your own home clinic & mobile clinic - what motivates you to do so much in your professional life and what do you love about it?
 
There are so many reasons why I love what I do. Fundamentally I adore movement, anatomy and people. As an active person I understand how tough injuries can be, so to be able to help people get back to doing what they love as quickly as possible is the ultimate reward.
 
You are literally of the kindest & coolest people I know -Tell us, what are some of your daily habits/ life hacks that help make you yourself?
 
For me it’s fresh air, my dogs, runs and walks on the moors, sunshine and spending time with Jonny, friends and family. If I have all of them, I’m a really happy girl.

Oh - and always having something in the diary to look forward to get you through the down days (hello January!).
 
 
FAST ROUND:
 
Favorite place to holiday: Switzerland
Favorite food: Cataplana and Cinnabon rolls
What is your coffee order: Cappuccino from North Star Coffee
 
Thanks Fi, we are so excited to have you as part of the team. You are such an incredible physio, teacher and now part of the team! 
 
So excited & I'll see you on the mat, 
 
Fi x
