Get To Know Your Instructor

What first inspired you to become an Instructor, and what keeps you passionate about it today?

Movement has always been my way of coming home to myself. I was inspired to teach because I fell in love with the feeling of connection: mind, body, and breath working together with intention.

What can clients expect from your classes — your style, energy, or focus?

My classes integrate the precision of pilates with purposeful strength work. Every class is designed around mindful movement, helping you connect with your body while building functional strength.

Do you have a favorite Pilates / Sculpt move or piece of equipment, and why?

My favourite piece of equipment is the pilates ball. It’s incredibly versatile, perfect for adding a gentle stability challenge, deepening core engagement and bringing more awareness to your movements. It’s a simple tool that can transform even the smallest exercises into something more intentional and effective.

What’s one fun fact about you that clients might not know?

I studied statistics at UCT

What do you hope clients walk away feeling after a class with you?

My goal is for clients to leave feeling challenged, yet re-energized and centered.
