Cara was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa. Her professional career began as a contemporary ballet dancer living and working in South Africa, Seattle, New York and London. Her passion for the Pilates technique stems from the successful rehabilitation of her dance injuries and the support it provided her craft. Having reaped the benefits of the technique first hand, she went on to complete the Alan Herdman teacher training course and has been a member of his faculty since 2016. Shortly after qualifying, she also worked as the Pilates and body conditioning tutor for the Central School of Ballet Associates Programme. Her primary interest lies in using Pilates as a tool for effective injury prevention and rehabilitation and is passionate about continued education to better serve her clients. Alongside working at the Alan Herdman Pilates Studio, she teaches privately around Central London and is thrilled to be a part of the Covent Garden Physio team.
