I am half Greek and half Italian, and I was born and raised in Turkey. Before my current role as a co-founder of Konnect Pilates in Southern California, I had a successful career as a professional dancer. As a PMA certified and Balanced Body Master Instructor, I have the privilege of teaching various courses in Pilates, including Anatomy in 3 Dimensions, BODHI, MOTR, CoreAlign, and the Konnector®. My specialization lies in training athletes and dancers, and I have obtained certifications in the Ki-Hara technique for resistance flexibility and strength training, as well as the American Ballet Theater National Training Curriculum for young dancers. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to present workshops and trainings worldwide, including Pilates on Tour events, where I showcase my innovative invention, The Konnector®, and the Konnections format. Additionally, you can find my classes featured on many Balanced Body DVDs, as well as on platforms like Pilates Anytime. My expertise has also been recognized through featured articles in Pilates Style Magazine.
