Pilates E-Motion representative in Greece
Classical Pilates Teacher Trainer
Certified Classical Pilates Instructor, implementing the Pilates method for the last 18 years, as taught by Joseph Pilates.


From the dance world to the Pilates method.
Coming from the dance world and having a back injury, I first discovered Pilates in Athens back in 2006, after I finished my MA in Performance Studies in the U.K.
I finished my Pilates training in 2008, taught by Evgenia Papadopoulou, a student of Romana Kryzanowska. My passion for always going deeper into the method has grown ever since.
“Pilates for me is the perfect source of life. Working hard to find your inner strength.”

“Contrology is not a system of haphazard exercises designed to produce only bulging muscles.”
Joseph Pilates, 1883-1967
Joseph Hubertus Pilates was the mastermind who created Contrology; what we call today the Pilates method.
The Pilates method is suitable for all ages, backgrounds and fitness levels. It develops your strength, flexibility, mobility and endurance, and keeps your body and mind alert and motivated.
