Every session is thoughtfully designed to honor your unique needs and pace, offering a calm, supportive, and nurturing environment where you can grow, move mindfully, and experience the benefits of reformer pilates.

Together, this equipment allows for fully personalised movement and an elevated pilates experience.
Dr Carmen Horvat
Owner, Lead Instructor
Carmen has decades long history in artistic gymnastics, where she represented Slovenia for many years. She is a qualified women's and men's artistic gymnastics coach as well as an international level judge in women's artistic gymnastics. Her gymnastics background has developed a strong appreciation for the human body, a deep understanding of movement, valuable coaching skills, and a keen eye for detail.
Her interest in sport led her to complete an MSc and PhD at Loughborough University.
After retiring from elite gymnastics, she discovered a passion for reformer pilates, drawn to its similarities with gymnastics, including attention to detail, precision, and control. Her reformer practice is based on breath-movement coordination, body alignment and core engagement performed with intention and mindful flow.
