To maintain the quality of service, our Pilates studio is based on appointment only.
It is strongly suggested to do the private sessions before joining classes.
The first private session includes a tour of the studio, an introduction to the bio-mechanical principles, and a fitness level assessment with musculoskeletal posture and movement analysis. Clients will receive feedback on their patterns that contribute to imbalances or recurring injuries, as well as guidance how to create the change. This process will help you to reap your maximum result in your exercise.
We value your investment in health and want to make sure you get the best results. We will provide information about your next steps to achieve those goals such as # of session per week and private vs group.
Beginners will not allow to join an existing group class before completing at least one private Pilates session and gaining instructor approval.
Membership can be purchased once completing at least one Private Session and Instructor Approval.

Welcome to My Studio
Philosophy
Our logo is based on a concept of Tensegrity. Tensegrity is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension and arranged in such a way that the compressed members (Skeletal System) do not touch each other while the prestressed tensioned members (muscular system) delineate the system spatially.
Inspired by how the body is built, a small biped base (feet) with a bigger load on the middle (core) and a single point on the top (head), we use a triangle to picture how all those elements come together as a holding frame of our body. All elements are equally important and connected to support each other. We believe our bodies can carry great tension if all components work together with integrity.
Behind our name Design 2 Move, we believe the true potential of the body is designed to move with ease and without pain. How we move in daily activities will dictate how we distribute the tension within our body. Injuries occur when a certain component of the body carries more tension than another. No matter the exercise, the body will end up using the same components (pattern of recruitment). To recover or prevent injuries, the body needs to build a new pattern or habit of movement, developing a mind-body connection (awareness) so the body can move efficiently and properly distribute tension.
D2M Pilates is based on the STOTT PILATES® method which is a contemporary approach to the original exercise method pioneered by the late Joseph Pilates. By utilizing modern principles of exercise science and rehabilitation, it has become one of the safest and most effective methods recognized worldwide.

My Pilates Journey
I’m originally from Indonesia and have been active since childhood. Throughout school, I danced, swam, played basketball, trained in Taekwondo, and was a cheerleader.
While pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Social and Political Science, I worked as a TV journalist, which helped me develop strong communication skills and connect with a wide range of people. After graduating, I transitioned into Marketing Communications and became a Co-Founder of Forward Communication Company.
However, as I progressed in my corporate career, I began to notice a decline in my health. I was constantly exhausted, lacked energy, and felt my mobility and strength slipping away. Realizing the toll it was taking on my life, I made a bold decision to change direction. In 2006, I transitioned into the Fitness and Health Industry, and that’s where my true passion began…
I began my career as a Personal Trainer and Fitness Group Instructor at Celebrity Fitness in Indonesia, where I taught a variety of classes including Pilates, Hatha Yoga, Floating Yoga, LesMills BODYCOMBAT™, LesMills BODYBALANCE™, BOSU®, ViPR, and TRX®.
In 2010, I decided to focus exclusively on Pilates. I co-founded a Pilates studio in Jakarta and pursued full certification through the internationally renowned STOTT PILATES®. I became a Full-Certified STOTT PILATES® Instructor, deepening my expertise in the method. In 2017, I relocated to Chandler, Arizona, to be with my husband.
With nearly two decades in the health and fitness industry, I continue to expand my knowledge. I’ve earned certifications as a Post-Rehabilitation Specialist, Athletic Conditioning Specialist, Fascial Movement™ Instructor, and Total Barre® Instructor. I am currently pursuing a diploma in FAMO Fascia Movement® Teacher Advanced Level.
What drives me is a deep passion for learning and growth. I never stop advancing my education to offer more than just a Pilates routine; I aim to provide a holistic integration of the body’s kinetic chains. Nothing inspires me more than seeing the look of accomplishment on someone’s face when they achieve something in their practice they never thought possible. This passion is what led me to open Design 2 Move Pilates—a space dedicated to helping people rediscover the freedom of movement and live with greater mobility and strength.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions? I have answers
Absolutely! Pilates is an excellent choice for post-rehabilitation. When recovering from surgery or injury, other areas of the body often become affected due to compensation. Over time, these compensation patterns can lead to pain or further injury. Pilates targets the entire kinetic chain, helping restore proper muscle function and movement patterns to support long-term recovery.
This is a GREAT question and the short answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!
Pilates is for everyone. I have triathletes who are clients but I also have lots of folks who are doing rehab after an injury or surgery.
If you’re new to Pilates, recovering from an injury, or have specific goals, Private Lessons will be more beneficial for you. On the other hand, if you’re looking for a workout routine and enjoy a more social atmosphere, Group Classes may be a better fit.
To get the most out of our group classes, it’s helpful to have a basic understanding of Pilates, including proper breathing, alignment, movement cues, and more. For new clients, we require a minimum of one private session before joining the group classes to ensure a solid foundation.
We believe in providing quality with a personal touch.
From our small class sizes—just 3-5 people per session—to the top-tier equipment in our studio, every detail reflects our commitment to excellence. We also prioritize ongoing education, ensuring our team stays current with the latest research in health and wellness to deliver the most effective and relevant practices.
