Ava Nilsson

Ava started teaching barre in February 2021, after finding that the movement styles in her life were lacking something. As an ex-dancer, she wanted something that combined the positions and styles of movement of ballet, the control of pilates and a focus on building up strength. After becoming in certified in barre, she went on to teach both barre and pilates in Vancouver and Montreal. Ava loves barre because it is a female-focused movement method, but that doesn’t mean that men aren’t allowed or aren’t able to do barre 😉 Ava was inspired from a young age by her parents, both of whom love pilates and barre and included her in classes. This allowed her to become familiar with these styles of movement, which combined with her dance background allow her to understand the body and the styles of movement she teaches.
