About me

Hi! My name is Joanna and I am so glad you are here. 

I have been teaching Pilates since 2016 and discovered the transforming benefits and impact on my joints and muscles. I further continued my education to complete the 520 hour comprehensive Pilates instructor certification through Balanced Body University. In addition to my Pilates training, I completed my bachelor of science from SFU with a focus in kinesiology and theoretical mathematics. My background in biomechanics, physiology and Pilates allows me to work with a wide scope of clients with specific injuries or athletic goals. I love working with new and veteran Pilates enthusiasts to accomplish their goals of healing and strength through movement.

I started working with Joanna after a serious sports injury which left my arm in a cast. Joanna quickly found ways to work around my injury so that I could still get a robust workout. I never realized how much Pilates can help with posture and balance - definitely recommend trying it!"

I have been working with Joanna for 3-years and appreciated the tailored approach she has given towards me and my fitness goals. The Pilates exercises have been beneficial because they are both unique and challenging without being too difficult. The homework she gives me weekly is achievable and has helped me to get stronger."
