When I was barely 19, I seriously injured my spine, jumping off big hits on my snowboard in a snow-park. This led to months of bedrest and rehab and a lifetime of searching for balance and support for my body.
I stumbled upon Pilates while living in London in my 20’s and immediately felt that this would be a big thing in my life.
In 2015, I left the corporate rush of communications behind, and completed my full time Pilates apprenticeship in 2016 as a certified Romana’s Instructor.
Moving to California shortly after- I was lucky enough to spend the next few years working with and learning from the industry’s best across the USA and Europe.
Once back in NZ at the end of 2019 Contrology NZ was born here in Auckland servicing local clients as well as American clients continuing online.
Through Pilates I have found not only a lifetime solution for my own body, but along the way was inspired to share this method to move and help others.
