meet our instructors

Skilled instructors with passion for Pilates and focus on you

At Pilates Søborg you will meet dedicated instructors with a solid educational background. All are certified in classical Pilates through PilatesCPH - one of Denmark's most experienced and recognised training centres in classical Pilates.

This background means that our trainers can not only guide you safely through the exercises, but also have the professional knowledge to spot imbalances, understand the body's movement patterns and customise training to the individual.

We emphasise presence, precision and individual guidance. In our small classes, instructors guide you with both words and hands-on corrections so you see results and develop after each session.

Our team has different backgrounds that contribute to their teaching, but they all share a passion for classical Pilates and a desire to provide you with a safe, challenging and inspiring training experience.
