ABOUTÂ
PILATES COLLECTIVE CO
Meet Alina, the founder and instructor behind Pilates Collective Co.
Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Alina moved to Christchurch, New Zealand in 2023, where she built a welcoming community through her in-person Mat Pilates classes. In 2026, she took Pilates Collective Co. completely online, allowing her to share her classes with people wherever they are.
Movement has always been a big part of Alina’s life. She grew up training in ballet, jazz, lyrical and contemporary dance, earning awards at dance competitions and achieving Distinction of Honours in her AIDT Jazz Examinations. Alongside dance, she explored Pilates, yoga and other forms of fitness.Â
Now a certified Mat Pilates and Barre Instructor, combining her background in dance and fitness to create classes that are enjoyable, effective and accessible.
Alina’s mission is to make movement accessible to everyone, regardless of fitness level, age or experience. Pilates Collective Co. offers classes that are designed to suit everyone—whether you’re new to fitness, need modifications due to injuries, or an advanced student and seeking a challenge! These classes will help you build strength, better fitness and make you feel your best.
