Ourania Gkoltsiou

Pilates Teacher

Ourania is from Greece and has been living in Belgium since 2008. She has a degree in Communication and Media, and is also a qualified translator. She has had a long career in copywriting, editing, and translating.

Her first experience with Pilates was back in 2010. She has also explored several other sports and forms of bodywork, namely, Shaolin Kung Fu, Vinyasa Yoga, Argentinian tango, and tennis. Following a work-related cervical arthrosis, she switched to Pilates more systematically and stuck with it since.

Having experienced significant improvement, she joined the Comprehensive Corpus Pilates training with Kelly McKinnon and acquired her certification.

Ourania never stops being surprised by Pilates and by how deep it can go. She believes that our body deserves better treatment and that we should give more time and effort to explore its capabilities.

Being grateful to Pilates, she wants to share through teaching all the benefits she gained by practising it. As soon as she started giving classes, she became addicted to the rewarding nature of being a Pilates instructor.

She teaches in English, French, and Greek.
