Discover the benefits of Pilates

Pilates is more than just a workout

improved flexibility
improved posture
increased muscle strength and tone
increased body awareness
balanced muscular strength
stress management and relaxation

Developed by Joseph H. Pilates in the 1920’s, Pilates is a system of exercise that targets the deep muscles of the abdomen and spine to strengthen your body from the inside out! Instead of just working on the “vanity muscles” – the muscles you see in the mirror – Pilates strengthens the “postural muscles” – the internal, stabilizing muscles of your body – so that your posture, balance and core strength all improve while you sculpt your body.

«For me, it is essential that the clients experience a type of private class, whether there is one person or more. I want them to feel that they are in good hands and can just concentrate on being on the reformer or the mat, where they can come in contact with their deep core muscles and find a better way to carry themselves in their everyday lives.»
In every class Madelen makes sure to give each client personal feedback and a workout regime that will completely change their body.
Madelen is an eternal student and Pilates enthusiast who is continuously studying and taking classes with her mentors so that she can give the best up-to-date Pilates training to her clients.

What our clients say…

Absolutely loved the Pilates for pregnancy class I took with Cyrena! It helped me get rid of my back and knee pains and definitely made me stronger for childbirth. Have already referred my pregnant friends and looking forward to going again for my next pregnancy!

Oriane

For me training with Madel is the highlight of the week. Walking into the room, knowing that now body and soul will unite, gives me an incredible injection of energy. I am so grateful to have found Madelen and The Private Place #pilatesforever

Isabelle

It was really a bit of luck that I took a trial lesson at Private Place almost 2 years ago! Body, mind and spirit training at its best, and undoubtedly good strength training with a focus on the core. Madelen's professional and enthusiastic guidance has made me a stayer, she is absolutely right and makes me feel special.
