Leanne Letinic
Pilates Instructor
After discovering Pilates over 10 years ago I still to this today enjoy the challenge of mastering the technique and continually evolving on my journey of having a healthy mind and body in our fast paced life. After years of running and being a ‘gym junkie’ plus having two children, Pilates offered me that time to ‘destress’ as well as reconditioning my body.
My experience of teaching over the last 10 years only fuels my passion for supporting others for a happy and healthy life. Qualified with Diploma in Pilates Instruction for Studio and Mat repertoire with Polestar Pilates who offer training with physiotherapists and a comprehensive learning environment.
Having worked in numerous Adelaide studios and elite gyms has given me an opportunity to expand my knowledge further from others who share the love of Pilates both on a fitness and remedial level.
Kayla Han
Pilates Instructor
As a physiotherapy student, I have always been interested in the movement of the body and fascinated by the relationship between body and movement. I was introduced to Pilates by my friend Christine, who is an experienced Pilates instructor/Physiotherapist. Ever since I started Pilates, I fell in love immediately and I never stopped practising.
In fact I love Pilates so much that I took the Pilates instructor course from Polestar and became a Pilates instructor!
Personally, I am a very active person and I tried numerous exercises in my life. But I easily get bored with one activity, so I have never done one exercise for a long term except Pilates. Pilates has transformed my posture, strength, body awareness, as well as the way I look for everything.
As a Pilates instructor, I am excited to help other people to develop their body awareness, strength and mind. Hope that my clients feel the same way I feel about Pilates and love it!

Jasmin Pui
Pilates Instructor
Since I was young, I’ve grown up being an active person and have always been passionate about fitness, exercise and body movement. That’s what got me into furthering my studies in Physiotherapy and Pilates. I was first introduced to Pilates by a friend and it only took me one class to become intrigued and committed.
Pilates has allowed me to improve my posture and body awareness, transformed the way my body moves and given me a sense of community, all while having fun! Pilates is now my primary source of exercise. The endless form of movement combinations that Pilates offers constantly challenges both my body and mind. As an instructor, my satisfaction comes from helping guide clients through their journey of movement and discovering how capable they truly are.
