Bianca
I’m Bianca, founder of Pilates Republic and lifelong lover of all things health and fitness.
I’ve been a fitness enthusiast for as long as I can remember, always inspired by the magic of movement and how it can completely transform the way we feel. Sure, I spent the early part of my career in the corporate world, but I could never shake that deep pull toward my first love of fitness.
Eventually, I realised I didn’t have to choose between passion and profession. I could combine my corporate savvy with my obsession for health, and then Pilates Republic was born in 2017.
