Qualifications: Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Rehabilitation certified

Hi, I’m Mari! I’m a Polestar-qualified Pilates instructor with a passion for a healthy body and mind.

I found my way to Pilates through lingering injuries after playing volleyball competitively from middle school through college. Those years shaped how I think about movement patterns today and the role it plays in injury prevention. That eventually led me to practicing mat Pilates; wanting to get more out of it, I joined a reformer studio in Finland, where the classes quickly became the highlight of my week. That drove me to keep going, so I went ahead and completed my Polestar Pilates Comprehensive certification in Hong Kong.

I believe that how you care for your body shows up in everything else you do, and Pilates has been one of the biggest contributors to that for me. Through building stability, mobility and more efficient movement patterns, I’ve felt my everyday quality of life continuously transform. It’s what I wish to carry over to others too.

I love teaching because Pilates makes movement accessible for every body — the same exercise can be experienced completely differently depending on what each body needs that day. The exercises can keep unfolding into new layers and challenges no matter how long you’ve practised.

I’m here to work together with you to reach your own goals and find that same sense of ease outside the studio, whether that’s improving in sport, recovering from an injury or simply moving through daily life with more confidence.

Outside the studio, I enjoy cycling, hiking, long walks and overall being out and about.
