Alyse

Co-Owner Pilates Studio

This is never something I imagined myself doing, but now I couldn’t imagine my life any differently!

What would you say to someone considering doing the course?

This course was such a great introduction to Pilates. Perfect for somebody who wants to learn the principles of Pilates, improve their own practice & technique as a client, or start their journey as an instructor in the industry. Both of my mentors were a wealth of knowledge (Emma-Kate & Dani), and I would highly recommend this course to anybody starting out on their instructor journey.

What did you do prior to teaching?

I worked as a fashion buyer & stylist, and also had my own small business in fashion.

How are you using your certificate now in the industry? What do you love most about your job?

I am a co-owner of a reformer-only Pilates studio in Birtinya, Called INFLOW on the Sunshine Coast. This is never something I imagined myself doing, but now I couldn’t imagine my life any differently! I teach Monday – Friday and it never gets boring. I love the work life balance that teaching has to offer and now that I have been teaching for a while, the creative flare I get to bring to classes. I also love watching my clients get stronger and see results. It really makes this job so rewarding.

What did you love most about the viva course?

That the course was only 4 days, in person, over a long weekend! As somebody who doesn’t like studying, this was a good time frame for me, and I found I was able to take everything in. I also loved the people I met in the course. A few of the girls I met have become close friends that I still work alongside now.
