I’m Nicola Gilmour — a recently retired midwife with over 25 years of experience and the founder of FlowMotion Pilates. My work brings together everything I’ve learned from decades of supporting thousands of women through pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood, combining clinical insight, Pilates movement, and therapeutic massage into one integrated service.
FlowMotion was born from a passion for helping women feel strong, supported, and connected to their bodies during this transformative time. I understand the physical and emotional shifts that come with pregnancy and recovery — and I’ve designed my services to meet you exactly where you are.
Whether you join a welcoming studio class or choose my Signature mobile care, you’ll receive tailored, evidence-based support delivered with professionalism and a personal touch.
I offer sessions across Hertfordshire, Essex, and North London.
