A bunhead of some 34 years, Bea’s passion for dance and performing began as a young child. After graduating from The National Academy of Singing and Dramatic Art in 2001, she spent many years working as a freelance performer, teacher and director. Bea came to Cat’s Pilates class in 2012 having suffered from her fifth prolapse disc. Before long, the changes in her body were so significant, she knew this was what she needed to do with her life. She is proud to be New Zealand’s first instructor certified to teach Xtend Barre Stick, Xtend Suspend, Circuit 7, Fit Ball and Roll and Release. Bea qualified as a Comprehensive Pilates Instructor through Hearts and Bones in 2015.
