PILATES / MOVEMENT

Edric Hong

Senior Pilates Instructor 

​

Back in the early 90s, I experienced my “Aha!” moment with mindful movement when I discovered Tai Chi. The following several years of instructing and competitive-level martial arts brought on the inevitable encounter with injury, in my case, a nagging hip flexor ‘click’. Thus began my journey to reclaim my freedom of movement, eventually discovering Pilates and training with some of the great Australian Pilates Elders in the first few studios in Sydney in 1998. The rest, as they say, is history. 

Upon attaining my Human Movement degree and Pilates accreditation in 2006, I commenced as a Pilates instructor, and eventually ran my own studio, dedicated to helping clients from all walks of life regain their body awareness. A fulfilling decade of guiding clients to reconnect better with their bodies ensued before that clichéd curveball of life struck when I found myself touring nationally as an actor with a children’s theatre show. Pilates was instrumental in enabling me to maintain a primed mind and body to handle the rigours of a touring show. 

I am thrilled to now return to Pilates at several studios in beautiful Sydney, Australia; assisting clients to enhance that feeling of being ‘at home’ with their bodies.
