About Marlis
Marlis comes to us with a wealth of experience, knowledge and energy. She is fully certified in all Pilates equipment and repertoire, and has been teaching for more than 15 years.
Marlis was introduced to Pilates as a 13-year-old dancer and studied Interdisciplinary Arts at SFU. She continued to pursue a successful professional dance career in Toronto, studying under some of the great masters of dance, Pilates, and movement therapists.
As a teacher, Marlis keeps her studies relevant with the most current innovations and body sciences, incorporating PNF, DMS, cross chain training and fascial studies, with a particular focus on functional movement. With a deep understanding of physiology, Pilates, and an intuitive flair for playfulness, she offers a truly unique approach in her practice. Marlis focuses on simple, practical solutions for improved mobility in your day-to-day activities, whether it's standing in line at the grocery store or the best way to approach stairs, chairs and automobiles.
"Having suffered my own serious back injury, Pilates has given me the tools to assist others through the injury and recovery process at every stage of the journey". This passion led her to study rehabilitation through various schools and courses over the years including, 'Rehab Through Pilates' from 'Core Basics' Centre D'Osteopathie et du Pilates 2009. This deeply informed her teaching practice and it's evidenced in her intuitive ability to work with the body. She believes that Pilates is a valuable form of therapy often lost in the fitness category.
"I am grateful that I have been successful in assisting so many people in their exploration toward better movement, health, healing and a more balanced life. I teach because of the powerful restorative and versatile healing properties of Pilates. Pilates is the most adaptable form of movement, exercise and therapy for all ages, stages and changes in life. I teach because 'I Believe'!"
