Welcome ! I began my Pilates journey at the Ron Fletcher Studio for Body Contrology in West L.A. with Diane Severino in 1990. I took a few Polestar Reha Pilates workshops in Cologne Germany and decided to stick with Classical.
In 2003 I completed my certification at The Pilates Studio NYC and De Pilates Studio The Hague in Holland. My teachers were Romana Kryzanowska, Marjorie Oron, Brett Howard, Ton Voogt and Michael Fritzke. In 2018 I completed Alycea Ungaro's REAL Pilates “ Bridge “ program, for teachers at The former REAL Pilates training center in Berlin .
I’m a professional dancer, Dance/Movement Therapist.
As a dancer Athlete I suffered a serious injury of the left knee and ankle. I could barely walk. The doctors gave me two options, an operation or Pilates Training. I chose the latter! After feeling the effects of the Pilates training I knew I wanted to become a teacher of this amazing method of training!
30 years later I’m living proof that Pilates heals and strengthens the body!
Joseph Hubertus Pilates, a Greek German, spent his life during WWI developing his training method called “Contrology”.
Contrology / Pilates is an intensive full body workout that strengthens and stretches the deeper musculature of the abdominals, pelvis and back. Practicing Pilates regularly changes the body in many positive ways!
I opened the first Classical Pilates studio in Kreuzberg in 2001. I also taught the first Pilates classes for Professional dancers at the Tanzfabrik Berlin.
It is my pleasure to utilize my years of experience to help my clients reach their goals in a professional, safe, transformational and fun way. Pilates is great for anyone and everyone!
Whether you are a professional athlete, , stressed out CEO, busy doctor, mother, father, student, recovering from an operation or none of the above. Each training is geared to what your body can do.
