A certified Pilates Instructor and Personal Fitness Trainer with 15 years experience in yoga, Meret has worked closely with physiotherapists and chiropractors to develop Body Intelligence®. Applying research in the field of joint stabilization techniques and based on her studies in exercise science, kinesiology, nutrition and anatomy, she has created her own movement form.

Born and educated in Zurich, Switzerland, Meret trained as a professional ballet dancer until a persistent injury ended her career aspirations. Travelling through Europe while working in the fashion industry introduced her to the numerous benefits of a regular yoga practice.

With this experience and her own history of injuries, Meret studied to become a Personal Fitness Trainer, eventually working in Switzerland and the UK before finding a home in South Africa in 2005. Also qualified as a Pilates mat, Reformer and one-on-one instructor, Meret has considerable experience working with special needs students such as pregnant women and the elderly.
