Malcolm Scott is the founder of Anatomy Pilates which is located in Clontarf and Malahide, in Dublin. Having embarked on a successful commercial career in prominent multinationals, Malcolm through injury discovered his passion for Pilates, which naturally complemented his love of sport.
Malcolm grew up in Sutton thus harnessing his love of all things related to water sports such as swimming, sailing, wind surfing, wake boarding and cliff diving. He pursued swimming competitively, winning many events along the way. His love of sport widened beyond the blue seas to the track with athletics receiving much of his attention in his school going years.
He now enjoys windsurfing and can be regularly seen early in the morning heading west in search of the highest waves and the windiest conditions Ireland has to offer.
Malcolm suffered lower back pain following an injury which led him to seek Physical Therapy treatment. It was the Physical Therapist who recommended Pilates as the most effective exercise regime for strengthening the damaged muscles and preventing further injury. The results were profound in terms of both rehabilitation and the effects on improved muscle strength, tone, mobility, flexibility and power – elements vital to his continued enjoyment of sports.
It was this process that sparked Malcolm’s interest in the areas of Physical Therapy and Pilates having experienced the benefits first hand. A combination of both facilitated Malcolm’ s enthusiasm for all sports and this, coupled with his strong people and communication skills, made it an excellent change of career for him.
Malcolm’s vision in establishing Anatomy Pilates was to offer clients professional, friendly and results-focused Pilates instruction by providing a range of Pilates Classes and Special Programmes which cater for all ages, fitness levels and physical abilities. He was particularly interested in Pilates as a form of rehabilitation, therefore, being a Physical Therapist and a Pilates Instructor enabled him to combine both skills to offer clients a multidimensional approach to exercise, injury and pain management.
