Hiroko
Pilates Instructor
Hiroko has always had a passion for movement and has helped her students and clients to have their “aha” moment in their training. As a fitness enthusiast and a martial art instructor, she has studied yoga and therapeutic massage. Hiroko progressed to receive her Advanced Body Work and Acupressure Certifications. In her search to find an activity to complement her martial arts training and to help her knee issues, she stumbled upon Pilates where she found what she was looking for: more awareness of alignment, developing balance within the body and the power of core strength. She pursued Comprehensive Pilates Certification through Balanced Body. Hiroko’s passion as a Pilates instructor is to bring the joy and health benefits of movements to each of her clients. She has worked with a wide variety of clients from athletes wanting to achieve peak performance, to active aging populations with some physical limitations, from youth as young as 14 years old to seniors.
A fun fact about Hiroko is that she is a 4th degree black belt and very good at teaching tricks to her dog.
