Pilatesflows - corsi riconosciuti dalle casse malati

Pilatesflows is a movement method developed by Pascale Blunier that combines Pilates with principles from physiotherapy, osteopathy and recent studies on fascia. No machinery is needed to practice it, just roll out a mat and you're done. Fundamental is the precision of the movement always guided by the correct activation of the Powerhouse (come to the free trial course to understand what it is)...

Muscle awakening

It is a morning meeting for those who want to prioritise themselves and take a moment for themselves before starting the day. We will move around, doing some small strength and stretching exercises. The aim of this session is to listen to your body, receive food for thought, find inspiration and start the day with love. The course combines movement and reflection, based on Pilatesflows, but also incorporating elements of dance, meditation, etc. You can easily do the course on your own mat (you don't need more space).

About me

Since a young age I have always liked movment and with the age of 6 I started dancing, a passion that kept growing over time and brought me to chose it as a profession.

Physical activity has always been an important part of my daily life, allowing me to feel centred and balanced. After high school, I pursued my interest in movement and in 2019 I completed my studies in Sports, Movement and Health Sciences at the University of Basel. I then moved to London to pursue my training in contemporary dance at Elevate Dance Company. When I returned to Switzerland in 2020, I started working as a teacher of modern-contemporary dance and ballet. Later, I also taught modern jazz. In 2020, I began my Pilatesflows training. This training introduced me to a very effective training method that allowed me to rebalance my body. I am currently pursuing a diploma in choreography, with I-Path. After my first work experiences in Biel, Bern and Fribourg, I decided to return to Ticino and start my own Pilatesflows and Lotusmotion courses. In addition to this, I am also continuing with the DanzarMente project and teaching dance at ATAS in Locarno.

I speak Italian, English, French and German (as well as swissgerman), and I have already taught in all these langauges. If you would like to take a class with me, but don’t feel at ease in italian, no worries. I can guide you in the language you prefer. Come and try!

Why did I choose the name Bloomingmoves?

Bloomingmoves means movements of blossoming. After the movement practices I offer, from personal experience, I always feel like a flower. I feel good, open, positive, strong, grounded, beautiful, connected, centred... and it is this feeling that I like to convey in my courses.

Testimonies

"My first Pilates class was with Marylin, and I think she's the best. Thanks to her attention, Marylin not only helps you perform the exercises but also listen to your body and adapt to its needs. After a year of weekly classes, a year after giving birth, she helped me alleviate several postpartum complaints."Meriam
