How I found Pilates and The GYROTONIC® Method
Formerly an economics teacher and education policy officer, Faith found Pilates through diastasis recti (splitting of the abdominal muscles) after childbirth. She suffered severe diastasis recti of 4 fingers after giving birth to her first child, and her condition was unknowingly aggravated by incorrect exercises pre and post-natal. At the encouragement of her husband, Faith started seeing a physiotherapist, who introduced her to Pilates. Through her Pilates mentor, Faith later discovered The GYROTONIC® Method. Practising Pilates and the GYROTONIC® method have been life changing for Faith, who regained her core overtime and could move in any way she wants, pain-free. She had since made it her personal mission to educate mothers and mothers-to-be on safe exercises during and after pregnancy, to help those in pain to heal, and to spread the love of movement through her teaching.
With a teaching style that emphasises precision and being fluent in both English and Mandarin, she has helped many clients from teens to elderly to build core strength, regain better posture, develop awareness of proper biomechanics in daily lives, and move more confidently. An educator at heart, she also loves sharing her knowledge about movement and anatomy with her clients, so they walk out of the studio not only feeling physically stronger, but also mentally enriched.
Faith is also an artist and has showcased and auctioned her artworks at private and public events. Click here to view her artworks.
