Lili’s new-found passion for golf influenced her to learn more about the biomechanics of the golf
swing. As a result she has developed Pilates for Golfers programs, both on the mat and using
apparatus to condition the body so that it can reproduce a good swing time and again.

Lili is passionate about turning people onto Pilates and is always rewarded when she sees her students grow stronger and more confident. A former translator, Lili is fluent in English, Spanish and French and has a working knowledge of Italian. When not teaching Pilates Lili enjoys travelling with her greatest love – her family: husband Mark and children Sarah, Matthew and Jamie. Lili lives in Toronto, Ontario Canada.
