Zohreh’s Approach

Her approach integrates classical Pilates foundations with contemporary movement science, fascia research, and mindful conditioning techniques.
As a Certified Pilates Teacher (CPT-NCPT®) and long-standing member of the Pilates Method Alliance, Zohreh draws on a broad spectrum of advanced training, including SPINEFITTER by SISSEL®, Gyrotonic®, Gyrokinesis®, CoreAlign™, MOTR®, and Anatomy Trains®.
