Experience the Gyrotonic® Expansion System with Lisa.
About Lisa
Lisa brings over a decade of elite professional dance experience into her work as a GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® instructor. She trained at The Royal Ballet School and English National Ballet School, before performing with both companies and later joining Scottish Ballet. Over an 11 year career, she performed a wide range of soloist and principal roles.
Towards the later stages of her dancing career, Lisa discovered the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®. The results were immediate and effective. This led her to transition into teaching, with a clear focus on performance support and injury recovery.
In 2002, Lisa became the first full time Gyrotonic instructor at Scottish Ballet. In this role, she worked closely with dancers to support rehabilitation and maintain performance readiness. She trained under Master Trainer Hilary Cartwright.
After three years, Lisa relocated to the South West and established the first dedicated Gyrotonic studio in Bath in 2006. Since then, she has worked with a broad range of clients, from professional athletes to individuals seeking improved movement, strength, and recovery.
Lisa continues to build on her expertise through advanced training, including:
Lisa's approach is precise, informed, and results driven. She works with you to improve movement quality, support recovery, and build long term physical resilience.

Years of trampolining left me with arthritic knees and limited movement. After starting with Lisa, I quickly noticed improvements throughout my body. Twelve months later, I can move freely, walk long distances, and stand without pain. The difference has been life changing.
Lisa brings exceptional skill to Gyrotonic, with a deep understanding of movement from her ballet background. She combines breathwork, precision, and care to meet you where you are and help you reach your goals. Far better than pilates or yoga, one of the best things to support Women's Health is Gyrotonic with Lisa.
I had lower back pain for years that nothing fixed, until Gyrotonic. Nearly 20 years later, I am still pain free. Lisa is highly skilled and tailors every session to exactly what I need.
After a hip injury paused my vocational ballet training in Russia, working with Lisa through Gyrotonic has been exceptional. In just 10 months, she has helped me build body awareness and activate muscles I did not know I had. She is a highly skilled instructor — I would highly recommend her sessions.
After years of chronic back pain leading to surgery and ineffective treatments, working with Lisa transformed my body awareness, core strength, and flexibility. I am now pain-free, more present, and moving better than ever. Lisa is attentive, intuitive, and expertly balances support with challenge. She also tailors sessions to individual goals — helping me improve performance in competitive table tennis.
