Inspired Pilates and Yoga

Personal Practice: I started Pilates in 2014

Teaching Since: 2018

About Me: I’m a German girl who loves life at the beach in Cronulla.

Always looking for a fun time and and adventure I’m often found cruising in our campervan up and down the coast. I enjoy sharing my passion Pilates and always strive to make every single class fun, effective and different.

About My Classes: In my class you will strengthen and stretch your entire body, and develop improved balance, muscle tone and alignment, ease of motion and bone density ,all combined with a good amount of fun. You will leave the class feeling stronger and comfortable in your joints, and refreshed and energized in every cell of your being.

Personal Practice: I started dancing when I was 4, and later started practicing yoga in 2008. Yoga became a part of my daily life in 2017, helping me to connect my body and mind.

Teaching Since: dance since 2006 and yoga 2018

About My Classes: I start my classes with a mediation or pranayama (breathing) exercise, followed by a flow of asanas to connect your body and breathing, drawing awareness to your body and mind. A mix of building strength and increasing movement and flexibility. I want to share with you the benefits that yoga has given me - leaving class with a clear mind, and a strong and relaxed body.

About Me: I really began to notice and enjoy the benefits that yoga provided after having 2 children. Helping me to find some calm and peace in the chaos that can be life. Yoga started to become more than just asanas in a class and more about a way of living. I became curious about life and my place and purpose and I’m still on this exciting journey of learning and sharing some of the amazing philosophies of yoga.

When I’m not in the studio practicing yoga or pilates, you will find me teaching dance, riding my bike, baking cakes or enjoying the outdoors with my little family.

Personal Practice: I have always been active, starting in calisthenics at 2! I continued on to gymnastics, martial arts, dance, netball, basketball, horse riding and really anything I could. 

I have a history of scoliosis (very mild) and know when I don’t move my body I don’t feel good in my body. I first found Pilates in 2003 and my little studio was like a family. I loved how strong I felt. I did my first reformer class in 2006 and was instantly hooked. Becoming an instructor felt right and I have enjoyed every moment.

Teaching Since: I’ve been teaching since 2014

Personal Practice: I’ve been practicing yoga for more than 15 years and initially I was going on and off it; at the time that I only thought of yoga as a form of exercise. It has been the last 10 years that yoga has become part of my life. My yoga practice now is beyond the mat but a lifestyle practice of gratitude for life. 

About Me: I learned to appreciate and realise what yoga really is when i experienced a personal crisis. The benefits I found in yoga then was beyond the physical. It was in yoga that I found the inner peace I longed for during my crisis and it was in yoga that i experienced transformation that changed me and helps me continue still to be a better person. I have two children: one lives here in Sydney and the other in Manila, Philippines, so I travel back and forth the two countries every 4-5 months.

About My Classes: Currently my classes are prenatal yoga and for students under such a delicate condition, a key concept in my class is soft. I remind the students, especially those that have been doing yoga even before they were pregnant to keep their poses soft. We move gently from one pose to another and constantly reminded to listen to our bodies particularly under this condition. Along with the breath work, specific poses that are gentle and safe are chosen to strengthen and help the body cope with the pregnancy and hopefully ease the birthing experience as well. More importantly, the practice will also facilitate inner relaxation, stillness and peace towards inculcating feelings of joy and love. Yoga should be an enjoyable experience for everyone.

Personal Practice: Since 1992. From a young age I had an interest in health and wellbeing and was inspired to learn more about living a holistic lifestyle. The learning is my life journey.

Personal Practice: I started Pilates in 2014 as a way to complement my other training. Pilates quickly became something that I always need in my routine to improve and maintain core strength. I love that Pilates is dynamic, can train lots of different movement patterns and how deliberate each exercise is.

About Me: I like to stay active because it helps me to think clearly. When I’m not in a Pilates class, you can probably find me strength training, on the spin bike, or coaching gymnastics. I love to travel and have even made it part of my trips to find new classes and gyms to try in different cities! 

 

About My Classes: My classes cater for all abilities and I like to make sure that my classes are enjoyable by providing a challenge and encouraging body awareness. Drawing upon my gymnastics background, I like to create Pilates classes that work through a diverse range of movement patterns to improve full body strength and stability.

them and to move in a way that serves this. I’ll offer some challenges along the way so the option is
there to play and push yourself if that’s what you’re needing, but I also encourage people to feel
empowered to modify and rest. My kids and family classes are all about playing yoga and connecting
with others through this beautiful practice. Pre & Postnatal yoga for me is all about nurturing and
