The Founder
The purpose of Veronica´s Studio lives up to its name “Ambassador”: feeling in a place that represents the values of Pilates: movement, well-being and realizing our capabilities.
In her trayectory, she has gone from athlete to mind-body interpreter. After 5 years of university studies, she obtained a degree in Psychology at the University of Valencia, Spain. Practically her entire life she has been linked to the movement (mind-body) also with a high-level sports career as a Gymnast. After her retirement from competition, Veronica became certified as a Coach by the Royal Spanish Gymnastics Federation to lead and develop gymnasts.
Contrary to what is common, her retirement as an athlete was not due to injury; she perfectly remembers the moment when her head said: it´s time to focus on helping others. She never liked to compete, in fact she states that after leaving the competition she continued training hard by herself and this period was when she had the most fun and felt more athletic than ever. That is the reason she loves Pilates, from her point of view in Pilates there is no competition, all her energy as a teacher is directed towards the well-being and physical and personal development of people.
Involved in Classic Pilates since 2010, Veronica certified at Pilatistic Old School Pilates (Barcelona, Spain) having successfully completed the “Teachers’ Proficiency Pilates Program”.
Her curiosity and passion for the Method led her to leave her office job and deepen her learning attending workshops by Kathi Ross-Nass, Brooke Siler, Lori Coleman Brown, Peter Fiasca, Inelia García, Dorothee Vande Walle, Chris Robinson, Sandy Shimoda among others.
Every experience and knowledge she learned during these stages is reflected in her way of working and communicating the Method. She is a firm believer in mind-body training to achieve the access of the full potential of the clients. Veronica simply considers herself your guide on the Pilates journey.
Veronica’s favorite quote:
Everyone can be a sculptor of their brain, if they put their will and commitment into it”.
