THE INSTRUCTOR

Joavien Ng was introduced to pilates in 2000 after sustaining multiple back injuries from dance. After having tried various schools of pilates, she was convinced to seek and teach only the most authentic school of pilates.

Joavien Ng was certified with Romana’s Pilates® in 2006, a stringent certification programme dedicated to preserve and teach the purest classical pilates as designed by Joseph Pilates. During her studies at Metroplex Pilates in Texas, USA, she was mentored and trained by ChaCha Guerrero and Romana Kryzanowska, the Master Teacher and Protégé of Joseph Pilates.

In 2007, Joavien founded The Pilates Studio (Singapore), becoming one of the pioneers to establish a Romana’s Pilates® studio in Singapore. Since 2015, she has relocated to Algarve, Portugal, continuing her practice at the Monchique Pilates Studio, while also guest teaching internationally, including in Singapore and Australia.
