Hi, friend! I am Dr. Aya Farhat. A dedicated Pilates, yoga, and sculpt instructor living in D.C. I have always loved the challenge that fitness brings, but for most of my life, I used exercise as a form of punishment. I used it to change things about me that I didn’t like and to morph myself into an image I thought others would like more. It wasn’t until I found Pilates specifically that I learned to move with empathy for myself and the importance of using movement to tend to my mind as well as my body. My movement practices helped me heal my relationship with myself as well as physical injuries (hello, my fellow runners!), and now I’m on a mission to help you do the same by guiding you through challenging practices and creating spaces in D.C. (and abroad!) where you can connect to and recenter your mind and body.
