About Rach Peri Pilates
I'm Rachel Perica —a dancer, Pilates instructor, and educator with a lifelong passion for movement.
My journey began at the age of three, when I discovered that connecting the mind and body was my most effective way to learn, communicate, and express myself. This realisation fueled my pursuit of dance as a professional career, leading me to perform across the globe, with a significant portion of my career spent in professional contemporary dance companies in Israel.
To enhance my performance and sustain my dance career, I turned to Pilates as cross-training. This practice not only helped me build the strength to control my flexibility and manage my hypermobility, but it also deepened my understanding of the body’s mechanics and its potential for transformation, while keeping me injury free throughout the physical demands of the companies performance seasons.
Since 2010, I have been dedicated to helping others experience the benefits of mindful movement through my Pilates classes. I bring my extensive knowledge and passion to every session, creating tailored programs designed to empower each client, regardless of their starting point. I believe in crafting a safe, supportive environment where clients feel nurtured—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
