Helen Curzon
Our Founder and Clinical Lead, Helen heads up our team of senior physiotherapists and clinical Pilates practitioners, driving clinical best practice and exceptional outcomes for our clients.
Movement and biomechanics have been a lifetime interest for Helen.
Prior to graduating from the University of East London with a First-Class degree in Physiotherapy in 2008, Helen enjoyed a greatly applauded career as a professional contemporary soloist, producer, and creative director in South Africa, alongside running and directing a highly successful dance school, Pilates and yoga centre.
Helen holds an advanced teaching qualification with the I.D.T.A (a world leading dance body and professional teachers association), clinical machine based Pilates qualifications with the Australian Pilates and Physiotherapy Institute (APPI), and a qualification in functional movement as a personal trainer. This breadth and depth of teaching experience brings immense value to our clients, clinical team and the overall clinical direction of our practice in equal measure.
CorefitPhysio was first established in Wimbledon Village in 2010 with the Westcott practice following in early 2016. This move allowed the practice to expand its client offering and took Helen firmly into the realms of clinic management, business management & development, and directing clinical and commercial best practice.
Relishing her clinical leadership role, Helen directs an exceptional team of senior Physiotherapists and clinical Pilates practitioners. Having been fortunate to have received great mentorship from expert physiotherapists and Pilates experts during her early career, she is a great believer in harnessing the power of clinical collaboration and knowledge sharing to drive excellent outcomes for each and every client, whether through Pilates practice, Physiotherapy or broader wellbeing strategies.
Helen has a special interest in Physiotherapy for hypermobility, lumbo-pelvic dysfunction, and active-aging. She advocates ‘solution-focussed practice’ and strongly believes that we can help any willing person to reach a place where they understand their bodies and have the tools and access to services to maintain their comfort, strength and wellbeing.
Helen’s vision and greatest ambition? “For every CorefitPhysio client to feel empowered to keep their world broad and horizons long through personal progress and strength gained from good exercise, supported and executed well.”
“Helen and the team at CorefitPhysio have genuinely changed my life and kept me working without pain for years longer than I ever imagined possible. I tell everyone about how fantastic Reformer Pilates is and how professional and dedicated the team at Corefit is.”
