PILATES, IN SINGAPORE

Hi, I'm Ezgi.

I'm a STOTT-trained pilates instructor in Singapore. I work with people from foundations to advanced, with specialised attention to postnatal recovery, diastasis recti, and herniated disk management. Currently, I teach group Reformer and Mat classes as a resident instructor at Piladay Studios.

Portrait of Ezgi

I started practicing pilates and yoga over ten years ago. The shift from practice to teaching came after my pregnancy. Pilates was the thing that supported me most through pregnancy and postpartum, and once I felt that, I wanted to learn how to teach it.

My own experience with diastasis recti pushed me toward training in postnatal pilates and abdominal recovery. I improved my own diastasis through pilates, and seeing what was possible in my own body became the foundation of how I work with clients now.

I trained through STOTT Pilates: Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Stability Chair, and Barrel, plus Functional Anatomy and the ICCB course (Intensive Cadillac, Chair, and Barrels). I've also completed certifications in postnatal pilates with Fonv Pilates Association and special-case work for clients managing herniated disks. Anatomy training has been a constant alongside the formal certifications.

I work with people from foundations to advanced. I like adapting exercises to what each body actually needs, and I'm specific about alignment, breath, and the order we build things in. Whether you're new to pilates or have been practicing for years, the goal is the same: get stronger, move more honestly, feel more at home in your own body.

Every body is unique and constantly evolving.

WHAT I FOCUS ON

Specialisations

Postnatal pilates

Pilates for the first two years after birth. We work on pelvic floor function, abdominal recovery, posture under the demands of carrying a baby, and getting back to the practice you had before, on a timeline that respects what your body has just done. Trained through Fonv Pilates Association.

Diastasis recti recovery

Targeted abdominal work for diastasis recti. I went through this myself, so the work is informed by personal experience and specialised training. We focus on connection before contraction, breath patterns, and rebuilding the abdominal wall in the right order.

Herniated disk management

Pilates for clients living with or recovering from a herniated disk. I work in coordination with your physiotherapist or doctor; pilates is one piece of a larger plan, not a replacement for medical care. Trained through Special Case Pilates.

Foundations to advanced

For everyone else. New to pilates or a decade in, the work adapts. STOTT-trained on Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Stability Chair, and Barrel, with anatomy training underneath.
