Flis discovered Pilates in Hong Kong in 2005 after the birth of her first child when she had lower back issues. It was in Hong Kong that she fell in love with the Reformer and how good it made her body and back feel. She knew that incorporating pilates into her life permanently would keep her body agile, mobile and strong. She then went on to study pilates and certified first in Mat, Reformer and then full comprehensive Studio series with Polestar Pilates.
Since then, Flis partnered with a chiropractor and opened Hawkes Bay’s first fully equipped Pilates studio in 2010. She has also worked alongside Physiotherapists for many years and enjoys sharing a common goal of improving clients’ movement patterns and consequently, their quality of life. It is a most positive and rewarding environment to be working.
