Meet Nihan, a highly accomplished Pilates trainer, movement educator, and co-founder of our studio. Her journey with Pilates began in 2006, when she transitioned from a successful athletic career into the world of mindful movement. With a background as a national-level basketball player and coach, she brings elite athletic insight into every training session.

She holds the prestigious PMA-NCPT accreditation and is a Certified BASI Pilates Comprehensive Teacher, with deep specialization in pre/post-natal Pilates, athletic performance, and rehabilitation-focused movement. She is also a certified Mindfulness Practitioner in training and has completed Exercise Physiology through Stanford University, further enriching her holistic approach to the human body.

Her teaching style is intelligent, grounded, and athlete-informed—balancing biomechanics, breath, and body awareness to deliver powerful, personalized results.

As a lifelong learner, she has trained extensively with BASI Pilates, Michael King, and medical movement specialists, broadening her expertise across musculoskeletal health, posture, and movement mechanics, including work with postural deviations and modern lifestyle-related conditions.

Above all, her mission is to help each client move smarter, feel stronger, and live better.
