SportFit Pilates 40+

Strong, intelligent Pilates for women who want to play sport for life.

Created by Chartered Physiotherapist, APPI Pilates instructor, and England Masters hockey player Heidi Wells, SportFit Pilates 40+ helps active women build strength, injury resilience, and move confidently through every stage of life.

This is not gentle background exercise. It’s performance-focused Pilates, designed specifically for active sporty women over 40 — and you don’t need any previous Pilates experience to join in.

Watch the short introduction video to discover why SportFit Pilates 40+ will help you stay strong, active, and doing the activities you love for years to come.

From Injury to Performance and Resilience
Ten years ago, I ruptured my ACL playing hockey. That moment could have ended my competitive sport — instead, it reshaped how I trained. Pilates became the cornerstone of my rehabilitation. It rebuilt my strength, restored my confidence, and reconnected me to my body in a smarter, more intelligent way.

At 50, I was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis — a long-term inflammatory condition affecting the spine. It was another reminder that our bodies evolve, and that movement must evolve with them. Rather than stepping back, I’ve become even more committed to training intelligently and living actively.

In recent years, I proudly represented England O50s in the Hockey Masters World Cup and O55s in winning Gold at the European Cup. I still play hockey competitively and also love cycling, skiing and running.

Why I created SportFit Pilates 40+
As a Chartered Physiotherapist with 35 years of clinical experience, specialising in sports injuries and rehabilitating knees and hips, I want to help prevent people getting injured rather than treat them once they are for injured. My mission is both professional and personal.

For the past 10 years, I have taught Pilates as an APPI-qualified instructor, blending physiotherapy expertise with dynamic, purposeful movement. SportFit Pilates 40+ is the result of everything I’ve learned — in clinic, on the playing field, and in my own recovery.
