I’m Charmaine, Singapore-based Pilates Instructor and Strength Coach. I come with more than 4 years of experience in the fitness industry, having taught Ballet fitness classes since 2019, Pilates from 2021 and Strength & Conditioning since 2023. I am committed to helping people move better, feel stronger and live well. I have an educational background in Communications & Media Management with a career spanning Public Relations, Journalism, Copywriting as well as Content Strategy and Creation. 

I was first exposed to Pilates as a young ballerina and rediscovered Pilates when I entered the workforce. I enjoyed how invigorated I felt after a Pilates class and the mental break it gave me after a stressful day in a corporate environment. I love how Pilates brings mindfulness to every movement, requires an intense focus for coordination and balance—it truly challenges the mind and body in every aspect. 

As an Instructor, I believe in strong foundational technique being the building blocks to more advanced movements. All the basic principles learnt in a Pilates class can be functionally applied to everyday life as well as other workouts, such as weightlifting, my other interest. I started strength training end 2018 with a goal to gain strength overall . Since then I have built more muscle and seen my body transform. I am amazed how my increased strength has manifested in being able to open water bottles (something I used to struggle with before due to a lack of grip strength) or supporting my clients (literally lifting them up in a plank in some occasions!).

Outside of the studio and gym, I play First Person Shooter games, spend time with my rescue furbabies (two dogs and two cats), and am also obsessed with beauty and skincare.
