Community Pilates and fun retreats
My partner designed a stained glass window for the side of our house, inspired by a rabbit - a nod to our home, which has “Warren” in its name. One winter evening, working in low light, he accidentally picked up a purple pencil instead of brown. When we noticed in daylight the next day, we realised we loved it. And so our Purple Rabbit was born.
Once immortalised in glass, that unexpected Purple Rabbit became the obvious choice for both name and symbol of my Pilates business.
My name is Hilary Wright and I am a Level 3 Modern Pilates instructor, with further APPI qualifications in Pilates for Hypermobility and Pilates for Runners.
My background is in mathematics and IT, but my love of Pilates developed while I was seeing a physiotherapist for a shoulder injury. Pilates was recommended as part of my recovery, and I noticed the benefits almost immediately - a real light-bulb moment.
With a growing passion for the method and a desire to share its benefits, I made a major career change from my job as Business Analyst in IT and qualified as a modern Pilates teacher in 2018.
