Hello! I’m Yael, a certified Pilates instructor and dance teacher.

Movement has always been my home. From my earliest days in the dance studio, I discovered how deeply it supports both body and mind. That passion led me to earn a B.Ed in Dance Education and dedicate my career to teaching movement. First through dance, and more recently, through Pilates.

Since relocating to London, I’ve been drawn more deeply into the study of the body, and how precision, structure, awareness, and breath can work together to create efficient, healing movement. I completed my comprehensive Pilates certification with Polestar Pilates UK, where I was introduced to a mindful, research-based approach that continues to shape and inspire my teaching.

Pilates took on even greater significance during my pregnancy. It became a vital source of physical and mental support, helped me prepare for birth, and played a key role in my recovery. That personal experience deepened my appreciation for the method and reinforced my commitment to helping others feel strong, supported, and empowered in their own bodies.

My teaching is rooted in the belief that movement is a powerful tool for connection and wellbeing. I focus on cultivating mind–body awareness and tailor each class to meet the unique needs and goals of my clients. Whether in a one-on-one session or group setting, I aim to create a thoughtful, welcoming space where growth and discovery can unfold.

When I’m not moving in the studio, I’m usually out moving through London, discovering its vibrant mix of art, culture, and hidden gems.
