Vanessa graduated as a physiotherapist whilst she was still living in Brazil after which she decided to move to the UK. In 2015, she completed her Pilates comprehensive training with Polestar and shortly after became a fully certified Polestar instructor. Vanessa is incredibly passionate about the benefits of pilates and this shines through in every class! She strongly believes that with its emphasis on core strength, body control, building a strong foundation and learning how to stabilize from the inside out pilates teaches principles that can be applied not only to the practice but also in all types of training as well as in daily life. Clients can expect a thorough yet fun approach to their practice while they improve body awareness, confidence, and strength.
