Style Pilates Instructor's Biography
The transition from my successful 13 years' engineer career in France to my Pilates teacher job is a long story ...
In 1996, doctors discovered I had osteoporosis [ what was unusual for a young woman ] when I seriously injured one leg, one hip and the lumbar spine falling down the stairs.
After major surgery, I spent a lot of months in a clinic and in physical therapy centres, working every day with physical therapists.
Rehabilitation methods really helped me, but I was not fully recovered ...
... Until I discovered by chance the Pilates method in Paris [ France ] ten years ago ...
After my initial exposure to Pilates at the Studio Pilates de Paris [ which works directly with Romana Kryzanowska herself ], I fell in love with this technique.
I loved how my body felt after every Pilates class. I proceeded to get trained in authentic Pilates.
I was fascinated by the technique's unique ability to improve all parts of the body and to be suitable for each person, whatever his/her physical condition, age, diseases and injuries.
I was also drawn in by the focus of Pilates on complete physical, mental and spiritual well-being.
And Pilates benefits went against the doctors assumptions.
A full recovery was considered to be impossible due to the after effects of the three injuries and of my osteoporosis condition; hence doctors concluded I will be disabled for ever ...

Now thanks to my regular practice of Pilates, I have really a Pilates advanced level [ I can perform all the full version and the challenging variations of all Pilates exercises ], I dance intensely Argentine tango, ballroom dance, etc. I walk, I swim, I dive, I used to drive a motorbike ...
I enjoy the life, and I am so energetic, busy [ I am also the President for Thailand of my French engineer school's alumni named "École Nationale Supérieure d' Arts et Métiers" ] and in excellent shape than people can't imagine me like a forecasted disabled person 10 years ago.
After received a rigorous and extensive training in all aspects of the Pilates technique [ from teaching a mat class to working with the Pilates equipment ], I graduated in both Pilates Mat and Pilates Equipment by "PhysicalMind Institute", Institute for the Pilates Method [ USA ].
The PhysicalMind Institute is recognized by the following associations as a continuing education provider :
* American Council on Exercise (ACE),
* Aerobic and Fitness Association of America,
* American Senior Fitness Association (SFA),
* International Sports Sciences Association,
* American Kinesiotherapy Association,
* National Athletic Trainers Association,
* National Academy of Sports Medicine.
As a certified Pilates instructor and Pilates personal trainer, I teach Pilates Private [ personal training ], Semi-Private and Group classes using the full spectrum of Pilates exercises on Mat and on Apparatus : Reformer, Cadillac, Wunda Chair, High Ladder Barrel, Spine Corrector, etc., and using Props like Pilates Magic Circle, Exercise Bands, Fitness Ball, Foam Roller, etc.
I am also certified in Thai massage [ Thai yoga, ancient massage ] and in therapeutic and healing massage by Wat Pho Thai Traditional Massage School of Bangkok [ Thailand ].
