Meet Yena

Former Rhythmic Gymnast turned Reformer & Mat Pilates trainer.

Here to support you on your health & fitness journey. Passionate about balancing work and life with movement.

Kia Ora, I’m Yena.

Born and raised in Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa. I started my fitness journey as a competitive rhythmic gymnast, representing New Zealand during my teens, and attending training camps internationally.

It was during my early experiences with Reformer Pilates that I truly discovered the power of mindful movement. This practice has brought transformative benefits for me, cultivating a stronger body and a calmer mind - something that’s often missing in our busy lives today. Inspired by the peace it brought me, I decided to pursue Reformer Pilates teaching; to share this experience with others. Eager to broaden the support for my clients, I deepened my craft and expertise into Mat Pilates also.

Alongside teaching, I also work full-time in the corporate world, which has given me firsthand insights into the importance of balancing work, life, and wellness - and it’s my mission to help you achieve balance and harmony too.

Movement has always been at the heart of who I am. What started as a love for Rhythmic Gymnastics has grown into a fulfilling career as a Reformer and Mat Pilates trainer.

Let’s move together, breathe together, and transform together. Whether you're new to Pilates or a seasoned enthusiast, I’m here to guide you every step of the way on your wellness journey.

Let’s Move!

  • Challenging (but in the best way possible). Yena doesn't make you feel silly if you have to make modifications to a movement - in fact, that's encouraged if you're struggling
