From the training diary
Last strength session before the big swim!
Our final strength session with GiGi before she took on the huge challenge of swimming the English Channel as part of a relay team, raising money for SwimTayka. We combined strength training alongside Pilates to help prepare for what was to come.
“She has also helped me with goal setting outside of the gym. She has been assisting me this year by programming supplementary training as I prepare for a half marathon.”

Hi, I’m Kizzy

Kizzy Hunt
APPI Pilates Instructor · Personal Trainer
BASE Pilates & Coaching is Kizzy’s own Pilates and personal training practice, based in Rutland. In class she asks about any injuries at the start, demonstrates each position, explains which muscles you’re working, and gives options for every ability, from complete beginners to pros.
Whether you want to build strength back up after pregnancy, train for an event, or simply keep active and mobile, the aim is the same: help you move better, get stronger and feel confident in your body.

“It was first time for me trying Pilates and Kizzy is perfect for a beginner! Her instructions are clear and easy to follow and she was great at explaining what part of the body we were working on and why, I would definitely try Pilates again! Thank you Kizzy!”
“I’ve been going to Kizzy’s Pilates classes for a while now, it’s so welcoming and has a range of abilities in the class from pros to beginner's. Kizzy is great at making you feel comfortable no matter your ability. She makes a real effort with everyone and is great at explaining and helping to guide you to make those little tweaks to get the most out of every movement. 10/10 recommend!”
“My Pilates journey began shortly after the birth of my first child and I am so glad I had the opportunity to work with Kizzy and build my body back up after pregnancy. Kizzy has a great teaching style, understanding your needs as well as giving you that necessary push to reach your goals and understand your body better. She’s taught me through my second pregnancy which strengthened me for the birth and I’m looking forward to getting back to it! I could not recommend her more highly”
“I have received multiple personal training sessions from Kizzy. I have had great experiences working with Kizzy as she is very knowledgeable and good adapting programming to suit various my fitness levels (and injuries). Her advice is always good and honest. She has also helped me with goal setting outside of the gym. She has been assisting me this year by programming supplementary training as I prepare for a half marathon. Overall, great PT. Would highly recommend.”
“Kizzy made everyone of all levels feel at ease right from the get go. Not only did she clearly demonstrate how to correctly do positions she explained what muscle groups they were targeting and gave options to members that were at different abilities and if there were injuries that she had asked about at the start of the class she would tailor that particular move to something suitable and safe for the individual. Happy, smiley cannot recommend enough! Can’t wait until she is back offering another class in my area. Thank you 😊”
