Instructor – Mat Pilates

About the job at DOWNDOG

At DOWNDOG club our Member’s well-being is our purpose. We are bespoke wellness club with Yoga being the core wellness offering. DOWNDOG blends intentional movement with restorative recovery experiences for both Mind and Body. Our Club is rooted in calm, clarity, and connection — offering sessions that centre mind and body through thoughtful instruction and recovery. Mat Pilates being an offshoot of Yoga is a natural transition.

Whatever reasons Members come to us, our instructor’s will work with them using a holistic approach to whole body wellness to help improve their wellbeing. Whether one suffers from chronic back pain, tightness in neck and shoulders, old injuries, or whether one has recently given birth or simply want to get back into exercise and don’t know where to start, our instructors know exactly what to do and how to get you the results our Members want.

The difference at DOWNDOG is personal. Personal service, personal care and personal attention to detail.

Our Members can schedule private sessions, either 1-on-1 with our instructor or together with a friend or they can join scheduled group Yoga, Mat Pilates or even Jungle Sport classes.

We keep our group sessions small so our Members get the attention they deserve, and we keep our Members moving in all the right ways.
