WELCOME
TO BACK TO BALANCE
Your Pilates Studio
Phil Duggan, Sydney
"Knee surgery, 5 years ago, didn't really help and I was struggling to get through my working day as a tradesman and was unable to cycle or play sport. My wife had been suggesting I go to pilates for years and eventually, 18 months ago, I started classes twice a week with Marta and Elif. I'm amazed at how much stronger my core is and how my body is so much better aligned - lifting heavy items and being on my feet all day is much easier and I'm even cycling and playing touch footy. Thanks so much, Phil"

"Pilates with Marta is one of the best things I have given myself. She is so caring & gives each one of us individual attention to our specific needs. I would encourage all people - young & old to be kind to themselves and seriously consider Pilates (done in a specialised environment) as a healthy option to live independently without pain."
Michelle Lee, NSW
“As a mum with two children at home, I found it difficult to consistently commit to exercise. I was dealing with chronic neck, back and shoulder pain and my ongoing physio and chiro appointments gave me relief but a couple of weeks later I’d be back at square one. I also had terrible posture which was affecting my confidence.
Since starting with Back to Balance Pilates I have felt a massive difference. Within weeks I was feeling more upright and aware of my movements.
One aspect of class I have particularly appreciated has been the thorough explanation of correct posturing and how to engage the correct muscles, which has had a flow-on effect to my every day habits. I have shifted from dreading moving my body to now, 5 months in, feeling strong, capable, pain-free, and connected with my body. I love seeing the physical changes in my body and it feels great to look forward to going to class and to be challenged in a safe and welcoming environment."
We are humbled and excited to share that our Studio has been selected as

OUR TEACHING METHOD
We believe in our body's amazing ability to heal and perform at its best
Our passion is to empower people to move correctly so they can heal themselves through movement. We truly believe our human body is capable of incredible self-healing - we just often don't fully understand what we are capable of. Rather than fixing what’s broken, we teach people how to move correctly which helps to avoid injuries and lead to perfectly balanced body.
Over last 10 years we have worked with thousands of people, analysing their biomechanics, tweaking the instruction methods to help them heal their bodies, prevent injuries and optimise sport/movement performance.
During those years, we have been observing people movement over extended period of time and noticing specific patterns - the most profound being the direct link of shoulder and neck overuse to lower back pain, knee injuries, heart issues (HBP, irregular heart beat), pelvic floor issues, prolapses, prostate cancers, incontinence, infertility, and bowel/ digestive issues among others.
Addressing those postural concerns has led us to create a unique movement framework balancing our myofascial meridians allowing the heart, brain, diaphragm and body systems to work together in coherence.

Our evidence based approach incorporates physics and applies a wide combination of mechanical advantage principles. We look at the big picture, combining all aspects of movement and wellbeing, creating a place where everyone can come in, get fit, feel healthier and more connected with their body. We use simple language that people can relate to, helping to understand how the body works and implement those change on a daily basis.
If that philosophy resonates with you, please get in touch. Whether you are a healthcare or movement professional wanting to provide a better care for your clients, or simply wanting to connect with your body at a different level - we would love to hear from you. First step can be the hardest part, we help to take it together
