Three Breaths was founded by Ainsley in 2021, beginning with Pilates classes in village halls and at Giggleswick School before growing into the beautiful boutique studio and community we have today in Clitheroe.

A mum of three, with a degree in Sports Science and a background in teaching, Ainsley is a Merrithew® STOTT PILATES® trained teacher with a passion for biomechanics, anatomy and physiology. Her approach is rooted in intelligent movement, exceptional teaching and helping people truly understand their bodies.

Today, Three Breaths is home to a small, brilliant team of teachers who combine expertise with warmth. Classes are intentionally small, allowing us to really know our members, understand how they move and give them the individual attention they deserve.

Our community cares about their health and appreciates knowledgeable teaching, beautiful spaces and the little details that make an experience feel special. They expect a lot from the time they invest in themselves, and so do we. It’s why people travel from across Lancashire, Yorkshire and Manchester to practise with us.

Our light filled studio is a sanctuary in the heart of Clitheroe. A place to escape the daily grind, move, breathe, connect and feel looked after, with coffee, catch ups and a little shopping right on the doorstep.
