In July 2013, she completed Nia White Belt Training at Burntisland, Scotland, UK. Since 2017, she has taught matwork Pilates and completed her training with the Brigid McCarthy Pilates Studio in Edinburgh. Marilene continues to study various movement methods to help each client find their own body’s way of moving in a more mindful and functional manner. This approach can help manage injuries, reduce pain while improving physical strength, mental focus and overall well-being. Yoga and Pilates classes are suitable for most ages, most levels of abilities and are taught locally and privately.
