Anita Horry
Our Founder and 2nd Generation Pilates Master
I was first introduced to Pilates as a result of back pain and Pilates saved me! First graduated with Power Pilates/Universal Pilates in Spain. I continued my education in USA with Pilates Elder – Lolita San Miguel – in a two year Pilates Master Mentor Programme. I completed a further year long LEAP Programme with the late Master Teacher Bob Liekens. These experiences have signified the importance of the Classical Pilates method, combined with functional advancements to the movement. That’s what Pilates Centre stands for! I am committed to bringing alignment into my own life and people I come across on a daily basis with the intention to make their presence on this earth a better one. I am honoured to pass on the incredible teachings of Joseph Pilates to my students. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing our students achieve profound physical changes while obtaining the amazing mental connections of the mind and body working in harmony.
Anita Horry is a founder of Anita Horry Academy offering Comprehensive Pilates Teacher Training course as well as other courses and workshops for fitness professionals.
John McCallum
Senior Pilates Instructor & Studio Manager
John is a certified 3rd generation comprehensive Pilates teacher and has been interested in Pilates since 2006 but got seriously interested in the method after having an injury which resulted in 3 slipped discs where he was informed he would require surgery. From this point he realised the true benefit of Pilates and became a more dedicated student and participated regularly in classes. Through Pilates he rehabilitated his discs and avoided surgery altogether. Having seen his transformation through dedication to the method, John took it a step further to train as a teacher so he in turn shares the benefits of Pilates with others. He is now a fully certified Mat and Studio Teacher and carrying on his studying through the Advanced work through the Pilates Centre Malta Teacher Training Programme. In continuing professional development John has travelled extensively to the USA and Europe. John’s ability to inspire others shows his true dedication to the method as his clients ranging from medical referrals to athletes would agree.
