In the Spot Light | Ola Mazur

Ola has been part of the BPA Team (previously Th Movement Practice) since April 2013. She is currently a Master Teacher and BASI Senior Faculty, travels around the world and still has her regular clients and class with us. She brings a ton of experience and has passion and hart for her clients like no other.

What is your Fav Exercise and Why?
Recently I love all the moves that involve spinal articulation. Sometimes it's Cat Stretch, some other time Open Leg Rocker. But Short Spine or Reformer and Side Lying Shoulder Stretch on Spine Corrector are always in Top 3.

What's the thing you will always add to your workout?
Pilates is my base, my movement foundation. The awareness, breath and agility allow me to enjoy anything else outside the studio. I always combined Pilates with other movement modalities. Be it yoga, flexibility training, Salsa dancing, hand balancing. Recently, I started weight training and I love the combination of Strength Training and Pilates.


Since when are you teaching at the studio?
In 2013 as a young teacher I was looking for some mentoring and that's how I started taking private classes at TMP. Very soon after I was asked if I would like to teach a mat class on Monday evening at 19:30. Yep, the same mat class that is on the schedule today 12 years later! :) I am forever grateful for this journey, the growth and friendships with clients and colleagues that happened in the walls of TMP studio. This place shaped me as a teacher, a mover and as a person and I will carry this legacy everywhere I go.

You can join a class with Ola on Monday evening or book a private to experience the benefits of her full attention.

Comprehensive time

What an incredible group this weekend! This very motivated group of students went through the BASI Mat program first and are now continuing their education in the BASI Comprehensive course.

They have that solid foundation and knowledge of the Mat and are now taking that to (all) the Pilates machines.

They make it seem easy but there is much to learn and practice when you aspire to teach others on 7 different equipments safely, skilfully and with eye for individual details.

Looking forward to having the amazing group back in the studio next month!

CHANGES AHEAD | GROUP CLASSES & TEACHER TEAM

March comes with big changes for our studio. As we say goodbye (at least for a while or a bit) to two of our main teachers Alice and Jimmy, both starting new and very exciting phases of their lives.

Alice will be on pregnancy leave from March onwards and we hope to welcome her back in the Summer. Her classes will be covered during her leave, and you can find Catherine and Aurora on our schedule instead.

Jimmy will transition out from all most all group classes (except the Saturday) to expand his Pilates business from Haarlem to Amsterdam. As we will miss our amazing colleague and his fun classes, we gain a BASI host partner in Amsterdam and look forward to all the joy and excitement that this will bring to the Pilates community in Amsterdam.

To both thank you so much for all your amazing classes and energy and all you brought to the studio over the years.
