Our Philosophy
We believe true health arises when the body, mind, and spirit move in harmony. That’s why our Pilates sessions cover from fitness to clinical rehabilitation—along with free meditation to support inner peace and mental clarity.
In Pilates, the mind leads the movement. This mindful approach helps you improve posture, increase joint mobility and stability, strengthen the whole body, release tension, enhance sports performance, boost immunity, and prevent injury.
In meditation, inspired by the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda, the mind is gently guided inward toward stillness and higher awareness. This practice calms the mind, deepens intuition, uplifts consciousness, and restores natural joy.
Together, Pilates and meditation help you reconnect with your true self, build inner and outer strength, and move through life with clarity, balance, and confidence.
At My Body My Pilates, we are committed to helping you discover holistic wellness and authentic happiness—from the inside out.

I first discovered Pilates in Sydney when my son was six-month-old. Pilates helped me regain my body after childbirth, and it supported me through my second pregnancy with my daughter—keeping me healthy, comfortable, and free from the common back and hip pain many mothers experience.
I was deeply impressed by how safe and accessible Pilates is during pregnancy, and this inspired me to study it more seriously. After completing my instructor training in Jakarta, I began teaching and have been passionate about sharing the benefits of Pilates ever since.
Through Pilates, we can create healthy, balanced days together. I look forward to welcoming you at the studio.

Like many people, I first started Pilates to improve my posture and ease the stiffness from sitting at a desk all day. It definitely helped, but I wanted to get stronger and understand my body better, so I decided to dive deeper into Pilates.
Since then, I've been studying, practicing, and developing my teaching skills here at My Body My Pilates under Helen's guidance. It's been a rewarding journey, and I'm happy to share my passion for Pilates with others.
My teaching focuses on body awareness, control, and strength. I believe Pilates is more than just performing exercises, it's about understanding your body, discovering what it can do, and moving with confidence.

I first started Pilates because of severe neck pain and headaches. I felt instant relief after my very first class, and the results I experienced through Pilates helped me rebuild my body and ultimately led to a change in my life.
I am passionate and determined to share this experience and journey with others, helping them discover the positive impact Pilates can have on their own bodies and lives. I hope we can learn, grow, and work together towards achieving our ultimate goals.

I was first introduced to Pilates while I was pregnant as a safe way to stay active during pregnancy and I immediately fell in love! The combination of strengthening and stretching left me feeling taller and stronger after every class. At the same time, I found that the focus on the breathing and movement reduced stress and increased my body awareness.
My goal as a teacher is to share these benefits with my clients; to help them feel strong and energized so that they can fully enjoy their lives inside and out of the Pilates studio.
Jessica
Mat+Reformer instructor
Speaks English
I’m a Balanced Body-trained Pilates instructor, and I completed my teacher training in Munich, Germany, where I also began teaching Reformer Pilates to group and private clients.
I was first drawn to Pilates as a way to improve my posture and manage lower-back discomfort from mild scoliosis, but it quickly became much more than that. I love how Pilates builds strength while creating a deeper awareness of how we move and connect with our bodies.
Movement has always been a big part of my life, and I personally enjoy a hybrid approach to training - combining Pilates with running, strength training and HYROX. For me, Pilates is the foundation that brings everything together: strength, control, mobility, breath and longevity.
In my classes, I want you to feel challenged but supported. We’ll work on moving with intention, building strength and developing better control, while still having fun along the way. My goal is for you to leave class feeling stronger, more connected to your body, and standing just a little taller.
Ana
Intern
Speaks English & Spanish
I’m Ana, originally from Spain and now based in Tokyo.
I first discovered Pilates as a way to release tension, slow down and reconnect with my body. What started as a way to balance a busy life gradually became a real passion. The more I practised, the more fascinated I became by the method and by how much it can change the way we move and feel.
I started studying the Pilates Method in Madrid and have continued my training in Tokyo, with a focus on Mat and Reformer Pilates.
For me, Pilates is about much more than how your body looks. It’s about building strength, moving with awareness and creating a better connection with yourself. I want my classes to be a space where you can challenge yourself, learn something new and enjoy moving — without feeling that you have to be perfect.
I’m curious by nature and love continuing to learn, explore movement and find ways to make Pilates work for different bodies, levels and needs.
