My journey with Pilates

My first ever Pilates class was at work, during my lunch break and it was instructed by a colleague who was transtioning out of her corporate accounting role and into the world of Pilates! I guess you could say it was my first exposure to the alternate lifestyle of a movement coach.

I felt challenged and energised immediately and really enjoyed the alignment cues which brought me deeper awareness of my posture and strength. When I returned home to Australia I joined a friend at Reformer Pilates classes and although the machinery looked a little intimidating, the dynamic strength grew quickly as I consistently frequented my favourite teacher’s class. Reformer Pilates advanced my aerial circus capabilities like nothing before! Fast forward through my yoga and qigong training and here I am a qualified Pilates instructor too because all forms of movement have something to offer my own wellness and that of my clients.
