Cate Hachigian (Pilates Fundamentals, Strong & Stable)
My passion is teaching people to properly align, recruit muscles, move joints in healthy ranges of motion and experience how the body feels when it works in unison. I certified as a Pilates mat teacher in 2006 and a reformer teacher in 2013 at a studio in Toronto to complement my training as a RMT. I continuously upgrade my skills and knowledge, particularly with regard to resistance/strength training, according to the current research in exercise science. My experience of 40 years as a regulated health professional and over 15 years of teaching enables me to creatively problem solve, confidently prescribe the right exercises for an individual, and design classes for all populations and multiple musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. I am an avid cross country skier, cyclist and runner. I hope that you find my classes are educational and fun.
