“Pilates is about empowerment, community and having a blast!”
Retrofit Senior Instructor 2024
Hello, I am Sinem, from the sunny Aegean coast of Izmir, Turkiye. I studied Physical Education & Sports Management at University and got hooked on pilates during an exchange year at Athens University. From intense focus to bursts of laughter, it’s been a wild ride ever since.
For me, Pilates isn’t just about getting strong – it’s a whole vibe. It’s about empowerment, community, and yeah, having a blast. I love bringing my passion for movement and self-expression to my students.
I have worked in the fitness & wellness industry for more than 15 years.
I got re-certified at Retrofit Pilates with Barbara Grant and Balanced Body in 2023. I call Toronto my home, away from home now and want to keep helping people do what they want in life with a belief in their body’s capabilities, with ease and joy, at an even higher standard.
Guiding clients through their fitness journey, connecting with them, it’s what gets me up in the morning. Each student teaches me something new about what it means to crush your goals.
