- The Studio -
Coming Soon
Something new is taking shape on the Silver Coast. I am opening a dedicated Pilates studio, an intimate, professionally equipped space for both mat and Reformer work.
This is not a gym. It is a focused, calm environment designed for precise, high-quality movement, whether you are working on the mat or the Reformer. Private & semi privaye only, close attention, and sessions that are always tailored to you.
Mat Pilates at the Studio
Mat Pilates is the foundation of everything. Working without equipment, with only your body and your breath, demands a particular kind of awareness and control. There are no springs, no straps, no carriage to assist you. Every movement has to be created and controlled from within.
The studio provides a dedicated, distraction-free space to go deeper into mat work than is often possible at home, and for those who already train with me on the move, the studio becomes a natural complement to their mobile sessions.
• Deep core activation and breath work
• Spinal articulation and postural alignment
• Flexibility, balance, and full-body control
• A consistent practice space with no distractions
Reformer Pilates at the Studio
The Reformer adds a new dimension to Pilates work. The springs, straps, and moving carriage provide support, assistance, and immediate feedback, making it easier to access correct alignment and work muscles in ways the mat alone cannot reach.
Mat and Reformer Pilates are not in competition. They ask different things of the body, and together they create a more complete practice. That is exactly why I offer both.
• Full-body toning and sculpting with adjustable spring resistance
• Deep core and spinal stability work
• Joint-friendly conditioning for all levels, including post-injury recovery
• Surf and golf performance conditioning
Who the Studio Is For
The studio is designed to welcome everyone , whatever your starting point or your goal:
• Complete beginners who want to be introduced to Pilates in a safe, attentive setting
• Women seeking a consistent, personalised practice for toning, posture, and wellbeing
• Athletes — golfers, surfers, runners — looking to train smarter and recover better
• Anyone who has trained with me on the move and wants a dedicated studio space
FAQs

Not at all. Whether you are coming to the mat or the Reformer for the first time, I guide every client through the work at their own pace. All levels are welcome.

On the Reformer, the springs, straps, and moving carriage provide support, assistance, and immediate feedback, making it easier to find correct alignment and access movements that might be harder to feel on the mat. On the mat, there is none of that: no springs, no straps, no carriage. You have to create and control every movement entirely on your own, which demands a different kind of body awareness and control. Neither is harder than the other, they simply ask different things of you. Together, they work the body in complementary ways, and that is exactly why I use both.

Sessions will be private on Reformer (one-on-one) and can be semi private on mat (2 people only). This is intentional. The studio is designed for quality over quantity, and I want every person to receive the attention they deserve.

Yes. Waitlist members will have access to founding member pricing before the studio opens publicly. These rates will not be available after the official launch, so joining early is the best way to lock them in.

The studio is currently in preparation and is expected to open within the next few months. Waitlist members will be the first to receive the confirmed date and booking access.

The studio will be located in the Óbidos Lagoon area, on the Silver Coast of Portugal — in the West Cliffs, Praia d'El Rey and Bom Sucesso corridor. The exact address will be shared with waitlist members ahead of the public announcement.
