Hello, I am Mareile Paley, owner and founder of Life in Movement. I have been a Pilates teacher (both classical and BASI Pilates) for the past 17 years. When I organised my first Pilates retreat in 2010, I had no idea how much this industry would grow...
Today, more than ever, I try to curate authentic and meaningful Pilates experiences and personally select all the ingredients that go into creating your transformative retreat adventure.
Let’s lead a Life in Movement together!
No matter what your level of practise or experience, we are all eternal students. All of your retreat teachers are working on from highest level of their Art of Movement and are excited to share their knowledge and passion with you. Experienced studio owners, trusted colleagues and friends — each one of our team is a truly exceptional individual and inspiring teacher!
On retreat Tash’s high energy and passionate encouragement brings infectious joy and laughter to anyone in the group. During class, Tash will push you to reach for the stars and to believe in the impossible. You are so much more than you think!
Tash is one of our senior teacher trainers and also leads regular Pilates retreats.
Nothing escapes Heather’s eagle eyes. Prepare for strong focus and high energy in class, as well as a lively chat over a glass of wine in the evening. Take a private class with Heather and find new meaning and a deeper understanding of what Pilates is all about.
Benjamin is an internationally known and highly sought after educator and we are proud to have him on our team. His passion in human movement is infectious.

Yes, we are all risking to become Pilates geeks under Benjamin’s playful guidance!
