피아노를 전공한 Lena는 오랜 연주 생활로 목과 어깨의 불편함을 겪으며 필라테스를 접하게 되었습니다. 필라테스를 통해 자세와 전반적인 신체 상태가 긍정적으로 변화하는 것을 직접 경험하면서 필라테스와 움직임 교육에 대한 열정을 키우게 되었습니다.
20년 가까이 꾸준히 운동해 온 경험을 바탕으로, Lena는 로마나 필라테스 강사로서 전문적인 지식과 역량을 발전시켜 왔습니다. 수년간 다양한 신체 능력과 제한 사항, 운동 목표를 가진 회원들을 지도하면서 사람마다 신체적 특성이 다르며, 그에 맞는 접근이 중요하다는 것을 깊이 이해하게 되었습니다. 또한 NASM 공인 퍼스널 트레이너이자 TPI 공인 강사로 활동하고 있습니다.
전문성을 넓히기 위한 배움을 이어가며 GYROTONIC® Level 1 Foundation Course를 수료하였고, 현재 자이로토닉 어프렌티스 강사로 활동하고 있습니다. 필라테스를 통해 쌓아온 경험을 바탕으로 자이로토닉 메소드를 탐구하며, 가동성, 협응력, 기능적 근력 향상에 중점을 두고 있습니다.
Lena는 사람들이 자신의 몸을 더 깊이 이해하고, 몸을 어떻게 움직이고 사용해야 하는지 배우며, 그 배움을 일상에 적용해 더욱 건강한 삶을 살아갈 수 있도록 돕고자 합니다. 그녀의 장기적인 목표는 이러한 움직임의 가치를 가능한 한 많은 사람들에게 전하는 것입니다.
