About

Hi, I'm Sal and I'm your Pilates Instructor!

My Pilates Journey
I first fell in love with Pilates in 2019. At the time, I was working as a Lash Artist and experiencing constant back and neck pain from hours spent bending over. A client suggested I try Pilates (something I had never even heard of before) and from my very first class, I was hooked. The beautiful, mindful movements paired with the rhythm of breathwork had me in an absolute chokehold.

I remember looking at the instructor and thinking: “I want to do that.” Fast forward five years and more than 1,000 classes later, here I am! A certified instructor. To now be able to share the movement that transformed both my body and mind is an honour.

Pilates is not a fad; it’s a lifelong practice that meets you at every age and stage of life.

My Philosophy
I don’t believe in luck, I believe in hard work.

People often say, “You’re so lucky” in relation to things like my body, my career successes, or lifestyle. But what they don’t see are the years of hard work and sacrifice behind the scenes. Success doesn’t come from luck. It comes from making a plan, committing to it, staying disciplined, and not stopping until you achieve your goals.

I live by this mantra: embrace the learning phase, make mistakes, grow from them, and come back stronger every time.

Mistakes and failures will come. It's what you do with them that matters.

My "WHY"

My why is simple: I love Pilates, and I want share that love with others. What began as a way to ease mental and physical pain became a practice that rebuilt my confidence, grounded my mind, and gave me joy. Teaching Pilates allows me to share that love with you. Helping others discover strength, resilience, and self-love, that they didn't know they had, through movement and connection. And I want to be a part of that!
