Tanya is an APPI (Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute) certified Pilates instructor dedicated to helping people build strength and vitality through movement.

As her understanding of the body deepened, she decided to become an instructor last year, officially embarking on her teaching journey. Today, she teaches at multiple Pilates studios, guiding students to explore their body’s potential and gain strength and confidence through movement.
