“Bewegt mit Alexa” means Moved with Alexa.
In Pilates, your body is aligned and strengthened through movement.
In art therapy, you have the opportunity to set your inner world in motion.
Hello, I’m Alexa, offering Pilates classes and art therapy in Zurich. My journey in bodywork began with yoga, which I taught regularly for six years. Along the way, I discovered Pilates and trained intensively—not just to integrate its powerful exercises into my yoga classes, but because I quickly fell in love with Pilates itself. I realized how much strength and dynamism it brought to both my clients and me.
Today, my main focus is on Pilates. In my sessions, I blend precision with flow, encouraging harmonic alignment. Through controlled movements and deep-muscle activation, my goal is to help you unlock your full physical potential—with joy in almost every movement.
I teach in both German and English.
