Pilates, Movement & Well-being

"A person has three choices in life. You can swim against the tide and get exhausted, or you can tread water and let the tide sweep you away, or you can swim with the tide, and let it take you where it wants you to go."

My Mission

I am a Classical Pilates Teacher, Movement and Well-being Coach. 

Movement has always played a central role in my life, whether that was dance, yoga, pilates, aerial dance, climbing on trees, swimming, countryside walks, cycling.

I have experienced how movement is beneficial for both body and mind and I am here to help you discover the same benefits. My mission is to guide you in gaining confidence in yourself, achieve goals, improve your physical and mental well-being, be happy and empowered.

Meet Stef

Pilates, Movement & Well-being Coach

I am originally from the south of Italy, from a coastline region called Puglia. I have a background in dance, theatre and aerial dance. I have performed and toured worldwide, working with some exceptional companies and artists. I am also an experienced inclusive dance and movement practitioner, with expertise in working with people of all ages and abilities. 

I am a certified Classical Pilates Mat Master with Exhale Pilates London. I am passionate about teaching the pilates method as a way to practise body-mind connection and, as a result, help people improve health, boost physical performance and overall well-being. 

I have recently embarked on a new journey to grow my knowledge around breathwork, mindfulness and active meditation adding new tools to my work and services.

  • “Stefania has this brilliant capacity to discern honesty in dance. She is comfortable in the uncomfortable and vulnerability that dance brings. I could work on any topic with her and know that she would handle it with great care and respect. Stefania always reflects on the process bringing depth and contrast to an ever evolving process.”

    Emma Snellgrove

    Performer, Choreographer & Wellness Coach

  • "Stef's classes are perfect for those who need a push! An amazing instructor who emphasises and places so much importance on connection in your own body and mind to the exercises you practice. I started classes with Stef looking to advance my pilates practice and Stef knows how to make sure you see your own progress as the weeks go on. Honestly look forward to every session
