Stephen Filipowicz was first introduced to Pilates in the mid 70's. He was again drawn to it years later when he was recovering from knee and back injuries and sought it for its rehabilitative qualities. He studied Pilates with renowned teachers Susan Greskevitch and Margo McKinnon at Body Harmonics in Toronto and is certified through the PhysicalMind Institute. Stephen, who taught dance for many
years at the University of Waterloo, has used his extensive background in movement and Pilates to train skaters and professional dancers to enhance their performance, as well as working with the novice exercisers to help bring strength, fluidity and balance back to their everyday movement.
