Pilates and wellness class

Background: I'm a certified STOTT PILATESTM instructor, educated at Pilates on Fifth in New York year 2001. I have worked as a professional dancer for more than 10 years, mostly in Denmark, Germany and New York. I'm the woman behind Womens Wellness that offers training for the mind, body and soul. I've been working as a stop smooking therapist for a couple of years and have also a coaching education and a NLP master certificate. Now I mostly teach pilates, yoga, silent spa and dancing in Copenhagen. I also give motivational speeches and make different courses for private as well as companies.

Description of pilates classes:

Pilates is a mindbody training that is focused on the deeper muscles of the core. As a dancer it is a must to have strong core muscles, so that you don't have to use more energy than necessary, that way your dancing will be more smooth and free. In the states most professional athletes do Pilates, since a strong core is the very important in most sports. I have further developed the Pilates method with opposite energies to make the exercises harder. And I use flexbands and Redondo balls for more challenge. The class will sometimes have a element of floorbare and yoga and you will learn how to really use your breathing.

Expected competence after 2 years training: A very strong and flexible body, improved posture and able to dance with more awareness and ease.

Description of wellness classes:

The wellness class is about YOU as a person - and your fellow students. We will talk about what is going on right now, what challenges are present and what is on your mind in general. We will learn to be more present and communicate well with each other and more. It's about wellbeing and what you can do to get the most out of your time on the school.

Expected competence after 2 years of attending the wellness classes: Together with the rest of the training, this class will help you develop into an even more beautiful dancer and person. You will find strength in yourself and your communication skills will be further developed. It will help you to find the real you, willingness to go after your dreams and make them come true.
