About me
Certified Classical Pilates Instructor.
Teaching Pilates as thought by Joseph Pilates.
Embracing Gloria Gasperi's approach of the method.
I'm a certified Classical Pilates teacher, embracing the Pilates Method, initially called by Joseph H. Pilates "Contrology".My goal is to help you discover the incredibly positive impact that the Pilates Method can have on your body, and guide you through a unique journey of self discovery and self improvement. Being an instructor represents a both a privilege and an ongoing commitment that I honor with effort, preparation and passion. As a teacher, I also commit to constant improvement of my craft. Working on ourselves is in fact the only way to remain in contact and connected with the work, understand feelings and remember pathways. It's a constant process of rediscover that deepens our understanding of the Method.
About Pilates Oltre
"Oltre" in Italian means "Beyond", "Forward".
"Oltre," embodies the idea of surpassing boundaries and limitations. It's the pursuit of personal growth and the drive to explore uncharted territories of thought, emotion, and experience.
My personal interpretation of the Pilates Method is that it is designed to support us in our path forward - slowly removing postural limits and taking us beyond them.
The main focus is Movement. Movement as the healing force that drives change and rewires your body connections and muscle memory. Movement as the mean to go - in an almost unnoticeable way - beyond the limits that restrict you in your daily life, at work, in your workouts or while playing your favorite sport.
About my journey
I discovered Classical Pilates as a young university student, in 2014. What initially was simple curiosity, immediately turned into a deep connection. It felt natural.
From that point on, my dedication to Pilates became total, and ran parallel to my career in international sales and marketing. I zealously practiced Pilates in studios across the globe, going beyond physical, mental and geographical boundaries. I experienced first hand the power a Method that worked in any Culture or Country - like a universal language.
I wanted to learn more and in 2017 I was offered the unique opportunity to participate to a seminar held by Gloria Gasperi - one of the most famous personalities in the international Classical Pilates field. I was in awe. Gloria is a protegee of Jay Grimes, a first-generation teacher who had the privilege of learning directly from the visionary, Joseph Pilates himself. Her interpretation of the Method, her passion and energy were contagious and inspirational.
Soon Gloria became my mentor and teacher in my path to become a Pilates instructor. Under her guidance I have completed the full Comprehensive Teacher Training Program at Pilates E-Motion, her Studio in Italy - my second home.
