When I was starting with Pilates in Germany by myself with a book from Lynne Robinson I never thought that I will have the chance to come to Swissbody in Switzerland one day in my life. But things changed. I am remember clearly my first phone call with Susan and my following visit at Swissbody. It was a completely different and so interesting world.   Now, for more than ten years, I regularly travel from Zurich to Geneva – sometimes more than once a week. My teachers there train me in such a committed, detailed, safe, systematic/logical and deep way that I am very thankful having the chance to work with and learn from them. The way they work my body and mind makes a real difference. They have such endless knowledge and experience.   And like Einstein was saying: “The more I know, the more I realize that I know nothing” - I hope I can learn even more from them. I recommend Swissbody Centre and Academy to all potential certified Pilates instructors, in this Academy your investment will be returned with learned techniques and knowledge in the field of Pilates, where rarely will such expert knowledge be transferred to you.

Thanks to Swissbody Centres аnd Academy for the commitment and excellent approach to all new students. The courses and exercises that are taught in this Academy are at a high professional level based on many years of experience and knowledge. The lecturer, Susan Pepper Arena, is thorough in all her explanations.

I came to Swissbody Pilates after several years of chronic foot, leg and back problems. Thanks to personalized attention, a holistic method and a very pleasant human relationship with the teachers, in particular with Susan Arena, I was able to resume walking and exercises without pain. The results are already felt after a month. Swissbody Pilate is the ideal place to take care of your body and mind.

Susan, I'd like to thank you very much for the Matwork II course you gave. Thanks to your teaching methods and your invaluable knowledge, I have been able to appreciate the full dimension of the Swissbody Pilates method. Both in its depth and in its rigour, by introducing new exercises and passing them on to the group in the best possible way. Thank you Markus for the very enlightening private lesson you gave me to help me better understand the method.
