ABOUT TANJA
“I love to facilitate somatic experiences in order to nourish a deep physical connection and the ownership of one’s own dynamic alignment.
I have been focusing my studies on three interest points:
- increasing the resting length of muscles to facilitate pain free joints
- develop strength from the inside out by taking care of skeletal muscles as much as of power muscles and
- cultivating delicious mobility by establishing movement habits with the support of the fascial system.
I am invested in teaching ways of moving that create an organic agility and joy in movement - in every day life or within the context of athletic goals.
I love to support people with unexplained and chronic pain as well as people with their recoveries from injuries. I am equally passionate about preventing, manage and improve physical challenges due to pain patterns in the lower back, neck and shoulder girdle, nerve impingements, as well as scoliosis, arthritis, migraines and balance issues.”
TESTIMONIALS
“Rarely in life do we truly encounter people who have earned the title Master when it comes to any discipline, and I can confidently refer Tanja as a Master of STOTT Pilates and Fascial Movement.
She has an incredible keen eye for the smallest nuance of movement and she effortlessly translates both, her intuitive sense of movement and sharp observation into feedback that is real time, easy to implement, and is part of a larger progression of movement that she always has in mind.
She weaves her background in Dance and non-western tradition in ways that help inform her practice and enrich the learning each session but do not become the central focus of time together.
I have seen terrific gains in mobility, posture, and functional strength. We’ve been working on neck and shoulder pain due to work related chronic poor thoracic posture, foot and ankle discomfort and threatening nerve impingement due to weakness, as well as on posterior pelvis tilt due to overall tension patterns and underdeveloped core.
I have gained comfort in everyday movement that I only had dared to hope for when starting Pilates. It’s been a year and a half with Tanja and I confidently can say the work we have done has been a high yielding investment in my future health and wellness!””
“I started working with Tanja about a year ago for a bad case of plantar fasciitis, which had hobbled me for ears, and was resistant to all other forms of therapy. Tanja was recommended as a specialist for my problems, and she applied her vast knowledge of the body to undo decades of damage to my fascia layers.
One year later, the feet are 100% usable! And if I do the homework stretches and exercises Tanja prescribed for me, I stay pain free.
Her delightful and playful demeanor is a joy to be around, and she is passionate about helping me (you) heal. After getting rid of the chronic pain that was ruining my health, she then focused on strengthening everything with more traditional Pilates routines. I Highly recommend her as a Pilates Instructor, for fascial healing, and QiGong/energt work.””
“Tanja is a miracle worker! I so appreciate her skills and thoughtfulness in working one-on-one. There’s always variety and a new approach to an old problem. If only I went home and did all she suggested I’d be running marathons. Seriously, I had an spinal epidural 7 months ago due to chronic unexplained pelvic and lower back pain and don’t intend to repeat for a very long time with Tanja on my stay healthy team! I highly recommend her!””
“Tanja has helped me with lower back pain, postural issues due to scoliosis and general body awareness. Tanja is quick to spot where I need work, and she adjusts exercises and moves constantly.
I have taken Pilates for years and have never had the results I’ve had while working with Tanja. I am standing straighter and taller and feeling better!””
