Joanne Tay -

Jo’s journey into Pilates commenced 15 years ago, spurred by a quest to find a

complementary exercise regimen to balance her high-intensity sports and dance activities.

Pilates emerged as the perfect antidote, offering a harmonious blend of serenity and mental

focus while providing a solid foundation to fortify her core and elongate muscles post

vigorous workouts.

Her appreciation and understanding of Pilates deepened significantly when confronted with

adversity – enduring two back injuries and undergoing two knee surgeries for ACL and

Meniscus reconstruction due to her athletic pursuits. Through these challenges, Jo

experienced first-hand the transformative power of mindful movement practices. With each

precise movement, each intentional breath, she witnessed her body’s remarkable resilience

and transformation, gaining strength, improving posture, and forging a profound mind-body

connection.

For Jo, Pilates transcended mere physical exercise; it became a holistic practice that

nurtured both body and mind. The intricate interplay between mental focus and physical

movement highlighted the symbiotic relationship between mind and body.

Jo’s areas of expertise include knee injuries and post-operative rehabilitation, chronic back

pain and injury, hypermobility, and scoliosis. She believes in being flexible and adapting to

clients’ needs and goals.
