Jin N.
Off Duty Pilates - Senior Instructor
What is your approach to teaching Pilates?
I believe deeply in the Mind-Body connection that Pilates inculcates. Helping clients understand their body and seeing them be able to translate my cues to movements well is what I strive for when I teach Pilates.
What do you focus on most in your classes?
I prioritise on breath work and alignment, understanding imbalances to find stability. I love challenging clients with deceptively simple (but not necessarily easy) movements.
What can clients expect from your class?
I like mixing Pilates repertoire focused exercises to encourage precision in movement, but with dynamic contemporary moves to encourage good flow and pacing. Clients will always learn something new about their own bodies and abilities in my class!
What do you want clients to leave your class feeling?
I want my clients leaving class feeling stronger and taller, more assured in their growing strength and just feeling good overall!
How would you describe your teaching style?
Clear and encouraging, and always ready to bring some laughter when it starts getting too serious and intense!
What’s something you often emphasise in class?
Simple movements when executed well, can be harder than a complicated one.
Outside the studio, what keeps you feeling your best?
I love spending time with my family outdoors, taking my daughter out for bike rides at Gardens by the Bay or ECP, or having picnics together.
What’s a value or mindset you try to live by?
My life’s mantra is to be content and strive for happiness in all aspects of life! I love my life and I love my job!
