Iva and Olivier, both educated in sports, discovered Pilates more than ten years ago. Confident and passionate about the method and the results they have themselves obtained through a regular practice as students, in 2004 they chose to pursue Pilates training further, so their customers can benefit of the method as well.

5 years later, in 2009, they work as international trainers for Pilates, thus creating their concept of Pilates Institute. They opened their first Pilates studio Institute in Lausanne and a few months later their second in Fribourg in order to provide each participant reach their full potential and physical well-being!

Their Pilates centers operate also asthe training centers for all official Pilates instructors in the territory of French speaking Switzerland.
