Rachel Lloyd began her career as a professional dancer/choreographer and taught children and adults dance. When Rachel discovered the benefits of Pilates, she fell in love with the practice, and eventually became a Master Trainer and then an Examiner. After working with fellow Master Trainer, Joyce Gavin, in America and Dublin on the Core Pilot Reformer, Rachel was asked to write a story to help engage children with Pilates. This was how Connor the Conker was born. Rachel lives in Oxfordshire, UK.

I'm a yoga teacher rather than a teacher of pilates about which I know comparatively little. I do know however, that story is a fantastic medium for working with young children and that the author Rachel Lloyd has a dance background and is a Pilates Master Trainer who is clearly passionate about its practice. Her positivity and what she says in the helpful notes at the back resonate with me completely.
