Before becoming a Pilates instructor, Samantha was a professional ballet dancer and is one of the most respected artists in the Philippine dance field. Her performances as a dance artist have taught her utmost professionalism, technical skill, maturity, and sensitivity.
Samantha became a Fully Certified Stott Pilates instructor in 2011 and started her career as a Pilates instructor with B+B Studio Manila. In 2016, she worked as a Certified PAI (Pilates Academy International) instructor with Options Pilates Studio in Singapore teaching private and group classes as well as Pre and Post Natal Pilates classes for a period of 2 years.
In 2018, Samantha rejoined B+B Pilates Studio in Manila as a Senior Instructor & Partner. With her passion of continued learning and fascination in the body’s capacity to heal through movement, she attended ‘Myofascial Slings Training’ offered by Art of Motion Education for Movement Professionals & Therapist. She has incorporated this learning to her Pilates classes which yielded positive results for her clients.
As a Pilates instructor, Samantha is known to be a meticulous and caring instructor who not only helps her clients improve physically, but also help them feel good about themselves and become their own unique ideal selves.
