It is here at my home Studio in Zwartkop, Centurion, where it all happens. It’s quiet,
peaceful and private. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of a busy gym with lots
of eyes then this is the place for you. As I am the sole instructor here, your privacy and
my full attention is guaranteed.
It is inside a cosy Lapa that I have all my equipment and mats. I instill a tranquil
environment, to break away from your busy everyday routine. It is like a reset button for
your thoughts and brings the focus to yourself and your movement. The Cadillac,
Reformer and Wunda chair is definitely a big attraction due to being unique to Pilates.
Classes here will challenge you to build strength, balance and body awareness. They vary
each week as we explore an infinite range of exercises, with various pieces of equipment,
that I modify and progress to your individual need.
Instructor Profile:
Occupation: Pilates Instructor
About me: I am Elmé Fabricius, owner and sole instructor at the Studio. I graduated from the
University of Pretoria (TUKS) in 2012 with a BA degree in Human Movement Science.
Since then I’ve completed the BASI Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training course and
been teaching in a few studios around Pretoria then started my own business in 2017 that
I am still nurturing until today. I am married (since 2017) and have two kids, a boy and girl,
who on top of my business keep me very active.
Growing up I wasn’t the biggest athlete. I did school sport like netball and hockey for brief
periods but only realised the importance of being active during my time on Varsity. Here I
was 22 years old and just started the Pilates mat course and to my shock discovered what
years of no real exercise can do to you. It became very apparent to me what value lies in
Pilates for every human body. We have a responsibility to take care of the body that is
given to us and how physical fitness and mental health are intertwined. This awakening
led me to wanting to teach it to the whole world and show the benefit of simply moving
with purpose can make such a life altering difference.
