A dancer turned holistic movement expert, my journey through pain and healing became my greatest teacher. Born in Vancouver and trained in New York City, I weave together a rich tapestry of movement modalities—Pilates, Yoga, Meditation, and Sound~Healing—each informed by profound personal transformation. Pilates though, will always be my first love, helping me dance when I could barely walk, finding strength daily in this profound system of movement.

Lolita’s Legacy Pilates Teacher Training Program certified, Prenatal and Postnatal Pilates certified, graduate Somática femina program in Instituto Macuil. Master’s degree in fitness and recreation.

Personal Motto: “The human body is not an instrument to be used, but a realm of one’s being to be experienced, explored, enriched and, thereby, educated.” -Thomas Hanna―

Anastasiia started working as fitness instructor 10 years ago in Ukraine. Aerobics, TRX, functional training, etc. One day she was offered to take a certification program in yoga. Anastasiia finished it successfully and started teaching yoga while exploring movement. So one day she found Pilates and fell in love with the method. No matter what technique or instrument she learns, Pilates is her axis. And Joseph Pilates himself said that we need to practice pilates for life. First do Pilates and then anything you want in life.

As a somatic practitioner, Anastasiia is a facilitator to the embodiment practice. Somatics main focus is to “wake up” your own body to the fullest of your ability or desire. Because once you are aware of what you are doing you can look at other options. Teaching clients is an honor and Anastasiia embraces each person as a unique and amazing human capable of healing and feeling his or her best.
