Katrina Merten
Owner & Instructor
I have always had an interest in the human body, how it works and especially how it moves. When working as a Physiotherapist 25 years ago, attending a Pilates workshop piqued my interest. Pilates has woven in and out of my life building to a passion and resulting in the decision to study through Polestar Pilates in 2021 to become a certified practitioner of Pilates Rehabilitation. I am a Studio Instructor member of the Pilates Association Australia. I teach movement based on Joseph Pilates' exercises and principles combined with my knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics from my physiotherapy training.
Pilates has deepened my understanding of how my body works as a complex unit and what it is capable of. With Pilates I can achieve a sense of wellbeing in body, mind and spirit. My mission is to offer my clients a positive movement experience by facilitating and guiding movement in a nurturing environment.Satisfaction, for me, comes from seeing my clients discover the joy of movement and sharing in that sense of wellbeing that comes with Pilates exercise.
