Pilates<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div>Just like we have behavioral and mental patterns, we also have movement patterns. Becoming aware of them is key to understanding your body and keeping it healthy and mobile. In Mari\u2019s Pilates classes, the focus is on recognizing these patterns.<\/p>\n
The training is rooted in the Pilates method, but influenced by various techniques (e.g., Madeline Black Method, barre, ballet, yoga) and physical therapy. It\u2019s not strictly classical Pilates.<\/p>\n
Each session begins with releasing tension, followed by a warm-up, strengthening, and finishing with light stretches and balance work. While the entire body is engaged, specific areas\u2014like the shoulders, neck, back, or legs\u2014may be emphasized.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Mari K\u00f5iv<\/h2><\/div>I\u2019ve worked with the human body all my life. I started training young and spent 15 years dancing ballet at Fouette Ballet School, including a scholarship year at the Joffrey Ballet School in New York. I\u2019ve danced as a soloist both in Estonia and abroad.<\/p>\n
Over time, I became deeply interested in how the body functions, how injuries and trauma affect it, and how to heal. Ultimately, the question became: how can we feel good in our bodies? That led me to Pilates, and in 2007 I went to Toronto to study Stott Pilates.<\/p>\n
Learning from experienced instructors helped me understand human anatomy and movement. I\u2019ve continued my training with world-renowned teachers such as Madeline Black, Deborah Lessen, Fiona McIntosh, Allie Greene, Michael King, Alan Herdman, Moira Merrithew, and Tom Waldron.<\/p>\n
