About Me
Hey there! I’m Malina, but you can call me Mina. I've been a movement enthusiast my whole life. Pilates has been my go-to for over 20 years, helping me manage injuries, gain strength, and get back to moving well.
Since 2000, I’ve been a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant, working in various settings. While in outpatient orthopedics, I trained under a Physical Therapist and discovered how Pilates can be a powerful tool in patient rehabilitation. The results were astounding, and I knew this was the path forward—helping people heal through a whole-body approach to movement!
In 2022, my husband and I made the big move to Austin, where I completed my comprehensive training with Polestar Pilates. Combining physical therapy concepts with Pilates principles has allowed me to help many people move better and live joyfully.
When I'm not in the studio, you'll find me geeking out on all things holistic health, exploring Austin's trails with my husband of 20 years, or cuddling with my felines, Chauci and Seuss. I can't wait to connect with you and show you how Pilates can be fun, addictive, and life-changing!
