Bistra
Instructor
Bistra was first introduced to yoga and Mat Pilates when completing her Bachelor’s degree in California State University. She loved the graceful controlled movements and the way yoga and Pilates helped her improve her balance, coordination, body awareness, and overall health.
After graduating University and moving to Vancouver she completed her 200hr yoga teacher training and her Mat Pilates certification with Body Harmonics, and continued her mat training with STOTT at Full Circle studio in Vancouver. During those years Bistra was working in the financial industry and taught yoga and Mat Pilates for many years.
In 2022 she became a comprehensively trained Pilates instructor with Club Pilates, and in early 2025 she completed her Classical Pilates Certification. She is currently working towards her Biomechanics Specialist certification with Body Harmonics, and Pregnancy and Postpartum corrective exercise specialist. She loves Pilates because she believes in the healing power of movement and is passionate about educating clients about its immense benefits for the whole body. She brings a high level of attention to each client along with a deep caring for every participant in class, helping clients deeply feel the effective healing movement of Pilates. When Bistra is not working she enjoys spending time outdoors with her dog and her daughter.
