ABOUT HELEN

Hello, my name is Helen Papworth, I’m the founder of The Aurora Lifestyle.

I always wanted to work with horses or in the sports and health industry. My dream started to come true when I studied in Cyprus in 2010 and qualified as a personal trainer and sports masseuse. Since qualifying, I have worked in local gyms and a health agency within Jersey.

Through my passion of show jumping, and understanding of the sport, I wanted to specialise in this area. In 2014, I qualified as an Equipilates Instructor, which focuses on helping riders to understand the importance of posture and symmetry, in the saddle, through a series of exercises and pilates movements.

Having this qualification has allowed me, not only to focus on the horse riders but, to be open to everyone in general by understanding the biomechanics of the human body, utilising this through sports massage, Pilates and personal training making it specific to each individual and their needs.

Spending my time working within the health agency has given me an insight into holistic therapy, by understanding how the body connects physically, chemically and emotionally and how it can affect our wellbeing. With this in mind I have studied Indian head massage to help re-balance the body and compliment my other skills.

I look forward to further developing my skills down the holistic route in the near future.
