Soheyla Dunglinson is a classically trained Pilates instructor and teacher trainer with over 20 years of experience in the field of human movement. Her path into Pilates began after the birth of her son, when she sustained a back injury that left her searching for answers. Amazed by the effectiveness of Pilates in her own recovery, she was inspired to pursue instructor training and went on to complete her comprehensive certification in 2006 with Peak Pilates.

In 2010 Soheyla was invited by Peak Pilates to train as a teacher trainer under the mentorship of Clare Dunphy  — one of the most respected leaders in the classical Pilates community. Over the next 15 years as Master Instructor, Soheyla conducted numerous instructor training programmes across Southeast Asia certifying many exceptional teachers – several of whom have since gone on to open and run their own successful studios.

Over the years Soheyla has continued to expand her knowledge and expertise building on her strong foundation in human anatomy and functional movement while honing the art of clear and effective teaching. Her commitment to ongoing study and refinement reflects her belief that a true teacher never stops learning. She approaches every class, whether with clients or aspiring instructors, with the mindset of a lifelong student – always curious,  always evolving and always striving to honour the classical tradition while meeting the needs of the modern body. 

Beyond training instructors, Soheyla is deeply passionate about helping clients of all ages and abilities discover their own strength and resilience through movement. She has extensive experience working with people managing scoliosis, osteoporosis, arthritis, pre- and post-natal needs, teens, seniors as well as elite athletes rebuilding and recovering from injury. Her mission is to empower clients and instructors alike to transform not just the way they move, but the way they live.
