The Lipoedema Wellbeing Programme
Hi. I’m Rachel…
Founder of 101 Pilates, an APPI-trained Pilates teacher and someone who lives with lipoedema myself.
My passion for Pilates comes from seeing first-hand how much movement can contribute to our strength, mobility, confidence and overall wellbeing. But living with lipoedema has also given me a personal understanding of the challenges that can come with the condition and the importance of finding ways to look after our bodies.
I believe managing lipoedema is about so much more than exercise. It's about understanding your body, nourishing yourself, supporting your lymphatic health, developing positive habits and finding a way forward that feels achievable and sustainable.
I've created The Lipoedema Wellbeing Programme to bring together the things I believe can make a positive difference, including Pilates, movement, nutrition, lymphatic care, education and self-care.
Most importantly, I want to create a welcoming and supportive environment where women feel understood, encouraged and empowered.
I don't believe in quick fixes or unrealistic promises. I believe in small, positive changes, sharing knowledge and helping women feel stronger, more confident and more in control of their wellbeing.
Having lipoedema myself, I understand that everyone's journey is different. My hope is that through this programme, we can learn, share and support one another.
Because living with lipoedema shouldn't mean putting your wellbeing on hold.
A six week programme to set you on the right path.

Mini Classes
You’ll get five 10 - 15 minute mini class per week to do at a time to suit you. You have access to all the classes throughout the programme, so you can do them as many times as you like. Plus a live online full length class on a Thursday at 6pm GMT. You will get more from your classes if you buy some small equipment like bands and a mini ball.

Healthy Recipes
Nutrition plays an important role in supporting your wellbeing when living with lipoedema. Although no specific diet can cure lipoedema, nourishing your body with balanced, nutrient-rich foods can help support overall health, reduce inflammation, maintain energy levels and support lymphatic function. So there are lots of recipe ideas for all your meals.
