About

Khristine Achacoso

I am a Full Certified STOTT Pilates Instructor and has been teaching and practicing Pilates since 2007. I started my journey in Manila, Philippines where I am originally from and trained under Vivian Zapanta. I was teaching at her licensed training facility for 5 years until my lust for travel led me to New Zealand. I wanted to explore the world and take my knowledge and passion for pilates with me. I landed a teaching job at Core Pilates Studio in Pukekohe, south of Auckland. I lived and worked in NZ for a year and thereafter, moved to Gothenburg, Sweden. When I arrived in 2013, I immediately started teaching at a couple of different studios in the city. After a few years, I moved to Skåne and taught at 3 different studios.

When my first daughter was born in 2016, we decided to take a break and spend time together so we traveled to the US and Philippines for 6 months. We came back to Gothenburg in 2017 and has been teaching again since then.

I am a STOTT Pilates Instructor and has been teaching Pilates for 8 years in Hungary and in Sweden. I was a professional gymnast for 12 years in Hungary winning several national championships. After my gymnastics career I moved to New York to attend Alvin Ailey Dance School. I first met Pilates technique at the dance school where we used it to enhance flexibility, to prevent injuries and as a form of rehabilitation. Pilates has been a natural progression to my gymnastics and dance career.

Based on the anatomical principles and the client`s needs I create a tailor-made program for them, and my goal is to give them a kind of training form which increases core strength and flexibility in an effective and joyful way.
