Amela - Your Healing Guide

Hello Mantra Tribe, I'm Amelia, and I've dedicated over 5 years to teaching Pilates, with a strong emphasis on perfecting form. My true passion lies in the healing power of Pilates, particularly in the realm of injuries and rehabilitation. 
But here's a fun fact about me – I used to despise sports as a child.

My journey started in Bosnia and Herzegovina … fast forward 10 years ago, I found myself in Dubai, pursuing a career in aviation. However, a severe lower back injury altered my course and led me to realize that a career change was in order.

That's when I discovered Pilates, and it was nothing short of life-changing. Not only did it transform my life for the better, but it also allowed me to impact the lives of many by teaching them how to live pain-free. My approach to Pilates centers around slow and controlled movements, with an unwavering focus on form and function.

For me, community is about creating a space where individuals can freely express themselves without fear of judgment, all while sharing in the joy of fun and laughter. Pilates is not just a practice; it's a journey towards healing, well-being, and personal growth, and I'm here to guide you every step of the way. 

My Mantra is “Exercise smarter not harder”.
