About

My Pilates journey began in 2020 when I moved to Australia, and it changed everything. I didn’t grow up with a sports background, and for years I felt disconnected from my body. Pilates was the first movement practice that made me feel strong, capable, and in control. It taught me that strength isn’t about pushing harder or being perfect; it’s about moving with intention and learning to trust your body.

What began as curiosity quickly became a passion, and in 2022 I became a certified Mat Pilates instructor. I’m a full-time instructor and have taught 1,000+ in-person classes. Today, I also bring my method online with Sculpt by Marleen, focusing on slow, controlled, intentional movement designed to create real, visible results and long-term progress, not quick fixes.

Through my own journey, I lost 10kg, but what matters far more is what I’ve gained: confidence, resilience, and inner strength. Through Sculpt by Marleen, I guide people who want to build real strength without burning out, sculpt their bodies with purpose, and feel more connected and confident in everyday life.

I believe in sculpting strength from the inside out, building a foundation you can carry into every part of your life. If you’re ready to feel stronger in your body and more confident in yourself, I’d love to guide you.

With love,

Marleen 💋
