Pamela TAN
Senior Trainer
Certified GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Trainer
Certified POLESTAR Pilates Comprehensive Instructor
Pamela is a licensed trainer in both GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Methods under the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®. She is also a certified POLESTAR Pilates Comprehensive trainer.
Pamela has been practising yoga for many years. She is passionate about movement of body and peace of mind. She was introduced to Pilates to heal her chronic back pain due to a bad fall at work. She experienced a wealth of benefit and transformation of her body through exercise and movement. Therefore, she embarked her journey on becoming a qualified and internationally recognised Pilates instructor to share her experiences with others.
She realised that many people are stressed and anxious in their life with the current fast-pace environment and have forgotten about their health. She loves to create a comfortable zone, always paying attention and understanding clients’ concern and creating unique exercise modifications and tailor-made programmes to develop each client’s need for their body, as well as increasing body awareness and alignment.
As the clients progress through each session with her, they gain strength, flexibility and poise. In learning to engage their core, tone their muscles and better control how their body moves, they will find a new confidence in life.
She has also attained the certification for the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® Methods to expand her movement repertoire. As a mother of a two-year-old, she enjoyed GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® teaching as the exercises are gentle enough to continue right up till the due date, alleviating varicose veins, incontinence and leg swelling. It helps to recover and regain abdominal strength and tone more rapidly after birth. The exercises also help to relieve upper body tension from carrying the baby and help to quickly regain strength and energy. The large circular movements, the traction supplied by the weights, and the natural ocean-like movements are very accepting of the ever-changing body of pregnancy. The goal in mind— a beautiful pregnancy, a fabulous delivery, and a healthy transition into motherhood.
