FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What are your prices?
Check out the "Personal Training" and "Group Classes" sections for pricing information. A healthy body is your right, thus I aim to keep cost-effectiveness to the max.
Where are your classes held?
Private and small group sessions can take place at your home, office, a nearby outdoor location, or via Zoom. My group classes are at Alexanderveld 84.
Do I need to bring a mat?
Due to hygiene and the epidemic, you do need to bring your own mat. For group classes, bands are supplied, but having your own is useful if you are joining on Zoom.

For personal training, rescheduling without paying for another session is possible as long as you cancel within 12 hours of your start time. For group classes, cancellations are possible up until 2 hours before your start time.
How does booking for your group classes work?
Just shoot me a message or email with the class or classes you want to attend. Then if you don't currently hold a 6 or 12-pack session card, then I'll send you a payment link to hold your place..
Can I share my card for group classes with another person?
As long as you're attending the class as well, friends and family members can also join for 1 credit per person. This makes for a great way to share Pilates with your loved ones visiting town, or even to convince your other half that Pilates is definitely not just for women! ;)

Absolutely! I'm flexible with this, it's just €10 per extra person per session.

Why should I consider personal training?
You’ll get the best and most time efficient results with a program tailored to your unique needs. By finding your intelligent edge, where it requires a solid effort but is still doable.
How quickly can I see results with Pilates?
As Joseph Pilates himself said, in 10 sessions you’ll feel the difference, in 20 sessions you’ll see the difference, and in 30 sessions you’ll have a new body!
Will Pilates help me lose weight?
One of the reasons I’m now teaching is because Pilates kickstarted my 25 kg (45 lb) weight loss. With it’s combination of muscle toning and stress hormone reduction, Pilates is an amazing way to lose weight! If you really want to up the burn and have signed on for personal training with me, we can combine your sessions with some HIIT (high intensity interval training).
What is HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training)?
Only the most time efficient form of cardio in existence. By alternating intervals of working at an intensity where you feel like you’re about to explode, followed by rest intervals, we will shred fat, and increase your metabolism for long after the workout is finished.
How will Pilates help my athletic performance?
All movement originates from your core. And by mastering breath control, your body is able to move more efficiently. So by focusing on the breath and core, we build a foundation for you to crush it in your favorite activity or activities. Plus the injury prevention offered by Pilates is unparalleled!
Isn’t Pilates just for women?
Haha! Hahahahaha! I have had plenty of male clients, as well as my partner, who have told me that my sessions are among the most brutal physical activities they have done, ever. Not only that, but Joseph Pilates was a wrestler. And if you’re an athlete and follow my sessions, they will prove to be your secret weapon!
