But it was an opening with quite a difference as its Founder & Managing Director Elaine Tan, a certified, highly experienced and professional Pilates instructor was intent on giving back to the community, and made the decision to incorporate a Post Pandemic Human Empowering Hacks segment into their program in conjunction with their grand opening. It was founded in 2020 by Elaine Tan Yee Lin, a certified STOTT Pilates instructor and a Master of Science holder in Sports Science.
According to Tan, the pandemic had led to many problems with social, emotional & mental health with many seriously affected. “That’s the reason why I wished that my Grand Opening is not only benefiting my organisation but came with the higher value of inspiring, empowering & motivating people to come out of their pandemic pain & move forward stronger,” expressed Tan who holds a MSc in Sports Science & is a fully certified STOTT Pilates instructor.

Pilates is a form of exercise which concentrates on strengthening the body with an emphasis on core strength. This helps to improve general fitness and overall well-being. Similar to Yoga, Pilates concentrates on posture, balance and flexibility. Known for creating long, strong muscles, Pilates improves your muscle tone, balances musculature, supports beautiful posture, and teaches you to move with ease and grace.
Pilates exercises are meant to focus primarily on deep abdominal muscles. These include muscles such as the transversus abdominus and the multifidus. These are both near the ribs, the pelvis and the spine. Working them correctly can give you a strong core. Improper exercise can however undermine your strength at key points and leave you with significant discomfort.
