My Name is Dora, a pleasure to meet you!
My Story & Mission
Hi there! I'm Dora, the founder and instructor behind PilatesUp. My journey with sports, fitness, and Pilates began as a young girl when I faced scoliosis. Since then, I've discovered the power of sports and exercise to overcome challenges and improve well-being. I've explored various athletic pursuits, from garage training to volleyball, and I ultimately found my passion in the transformative impact of Pilates on the body and mind.
After earning two Pilates certifications, I decided to share my knowledge and expertise with others by creating PilatesUp. Our mission is to guide individuals of all ages and skill levels on their journey to improved fitness, reduced stress, and holistic wellness, with a unique Pilates experience that combines personalized instruction with the beauty of nature on our green rooftop terrace.
My Unique Approach
At PilatesUp, I believe that the key to a successful Pilates practice lies in tailoring each session to the individual's needs and goals. My diverse athletic background and deep understanding of the Pilates principles inform my approach to instruction, ensuring that every class is both challenging and safe. Our sessions are designed to make you sweat while nurturing your body, helping you achieve a greater sense of balance and well-being.
The Green Hell Rooftop Experience
Our rooftop terrace, lovingly called "Green Hell," provides a serene and inviting atmosphere for your Pilates practice. Surrounded by lush greenery and fresh air, you'll find it easy to let go of stress and focus on your mind-body connection. Whether you join us in person or online, PilatesUp offers a unique environment that fosters personal growth, self-care, and a strong sense of community. I invite you to join me on this exciting journey toward balance and holistic wellness.
