“I’m a big believer that Pilates can be for everyone!"
Injury, conditions, fitness level don’t have to stop you from enjoying movement.
Hi! I’m Lorenzo,
I am originally from Trieste, Italy where I grew up with a great passion for arts and science.
At 15 I started my dance education that brought me to Rotterdam in 2009 to follow the Rotterdam Dance Academy Codarts, receiving my BA in Dance in 2013.
That’s where my first contact with Pilates happened. Pilates has been since then a great supporter of my dance career, warming up the body, preparing it for the stage.
I have been blessed to work as a dancer for more than 10 years in The Netherlands and around the world.
Beside my dance career I am a Certified Fitness Instructor since 2015 and have been teaching Group Fitness and Mat Pilates in different gyms and studios.
In 2024, after I decided to fully focus on teaching Pilates, I followed the Comprehensive Pilates Teacher Training (500h) with Polestar Pilates Benelux, receiving my Certification in 2025.

In my private life I live with my partner and our dog in Rotterdam, a city that stole my heart with its spaciousness, playfulness and honesty.
In Lorenzo’s Pilates Corner I have the pleasure to share with the city of Rotterdam my experience with movement and my knowledge built in this 10 years as a dance and fitness professional.
Lorenzo’s Pilates Corner is located within Queer Gym, in Rotterdam, the first Dutch gym focused on non-normative bodies.
