WIRRAL PILATES INSTRUCTOR HEADING TO ISLE OF MAN FOR WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT!
Owner of Love Pilates Wirral, Pauline Caswell, is heading to the Isle of Man for a groundbreaking Guinness World Record attempt on Sunday 19th July. The attempt is part of a huge wellbeing event that’s taking place on Knockaloe Farm, the original location where Joseph Pilates began to develop his original 34 movements over 100 years ago.

Having just celebrated 10 years of Love Pilates, Pauline travels to the Isle of Man to instruct taster Pilates classes in the historical setting of Knockaloe Farm before the world record attempt takes place at 2pm in the afternoon. The Isle of Man will attempt to break the world record for the largest single Pilates class, with organisers aiming to bring thousands of people together for what is being described as a global “Pilates homecoming”.

The world record attempt itself is a simple, 30-minute standing Pilates class, led by leading instructors and designed to be fully inclusive and accessible. Organised by Ramsey Crookall and 34Moves, and supported by Visit Isle of Man, the event is open to all ages and abilities. No prior Pilates experience is needed, making it easy for anyone to get involved and be part of history.
The event will take place at Knockaloe, where Joseph Pilates began developing the principles that would go on to shape a movement now practised by millions worldwide. Hosting the world record attempt at this historic location offers a rare opportunity for locals and visitors alike to reconnect with that story and celebrate the Island’s influence on global wellness.

Pauline Caswell, a highly experienced Pilates instructor with a strong background in education, is representing the Wirral with her Love Pilates brand. Through Love Pilates, she offers many classes from the highly popular Reformer Pilates, to the classic Mat Pilates and also hosts Pilates retreats in the UK and abroad.
Pauline said: “I’m excited and honoured to be part of this groundbreaking event. I have a strong connection to the Isle of Man as I moved there in 1987 and lived there for a number of years. I had both of my sons during my time there. My connection to the island continues to remain strong, with friends still living there, and it’s a full circle moment to be visiting there to take part in this historic event.”
