PILATES in CRANS
"Every moment of your life can be the beginning of great things"
Joseph Pilates
I believe that everyone can benefit from practising Pilates. It gives me great pleasure to educate, encourage and support my students to achieve their personal best. To guide them, building up their strength and flexibility and in turn, to see them with improved posture and self-confidence.
As a young, professional flautist, I was fascinated by the deep connection between music, art, emotions and movement. To me the human body is a piece of art, and through movement and expression it can enhance an individual’s creativity. Perhaps this is why I feel so passionately about Pilates as for me, it encompasses all of these things.
During my years at university I was confronted with chronic pain from hours and hours of flute practice. My search for a way to eliminate the chronic pain in my shoulder girdle led me, after many stops, finally to Pilates and Yoga and I never looked back! My condition improved rapidly and I was able to perform as a flautist for many more years.
After nearly 20 years of practising Pilates alongside Yoga, I took the leap and I trained to become a Mat Pilates Teacher and achieved my Certified Diploma in 2018. I am always eager to learn more through further training and also through the interactions with my students.
I am a native German who has also lived in the US and Australia before now settling in the Arc Lémanique area ten years ago with my Dutch husband and teenage daughter. I speak French, English, German and Dutch and am more than happy to teach you in one of these languages.
I look forward to meeting you on the mat.
