Zel Kian
Lead Instructor (Pilates, GYROTONIC® & GYROKINESIS®)
Zel’s strong belief in the benefits of mindful movement for a confident, comfortable and
pain free life stems from her own personal experience. 20 years ago, Zel suffered lower back
pain and shoulder impingement which became a debilitating daily occurrence to her. She
spent thousands of dollars on TCM, physiotherapy and more in the hope of finding relief
from her daily pain, with no success. Little did she know that the life-changing moment
would finally come in the form of Pilates and the GYROTONIC® Method. The combination of
these two movement practices not only healed her body and removed her pain, but they
also opened up a whole new career path.
Fast forward to today, Zel has achieved her optimal fitness level and helped countless clients
to enjoy the same transformative benefits she felt for herself. She is determined to
continuously deepen her knowledge of topics such as injury rehabilitation, fascia training,
chronic pain relief, postural misalignment and sports massage to relieve compensation
issues. As any of her clients will tell you, Zel is a joy to work with: observant, patient and
eager to help those from all walks of life.
