Born and raised in Edmonton, Paulina’s passion for movement began with dance at a young age. After years of training and competition, she moved to Toronto to pursue her post-secondary education in dance at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University), graduating from the dance program. She went on to perform professionally with companies including Pro Arte Danza and Helix Dance Project, as well as appearing in Feist’s “1, 2, 3, 4” music video.

Her career evolved into group fitness, with a focus on barre and Pilates. In 2012, Paulina was part of the launch of Barreworks, Toronto’s first barre-based studio, helping bring its programming and community to life. Shortly after joining Barreworks, she completed her Pilates training with Body Harmonics in both mat and reformer. She quickly became a sought-after instructor, teaching both group and private sessions to a diverse clientele, including high-profile clientele and celebrities. Her work and expertise led to an invitation to join the Equinox team, where she went on to earn recognition and awards for her work. She also taught at other leading fitness destinations, including Sweat & Tonic and Ultimate Athletics.

Paulina has a particular passion for supporting women through pregnancy and beyond. As a mother of two, she has specialized pre- and post-natal training through Nikki Bergen’s The Belle Method and has been featured as an instructor on the platform, filming a series of workouts for its community. This expertise has helped shape the studio’s approach to supporting moms at every stage, including Barre Baby, the studio’s post-natal barre class designed for moms and their babies.

During her time with Equinox, Paulina travelled throughout the East Coast of Canada and the United States, helping develop, manage, and launch new barre and Pilates programming across the organization. As an East Coast Presenter, she trained and supported group fitness teams as new clubs opened, building her expertise in programming, instructor education, and team development.

After moving to Windsor with her family in 2020, Paulina’s dream of creating a studio of her own became a reality. Today, she is co-owner of the studio with her husband, where they continue to grow their teaching team, develop programming, and build a strong fitness community. In November 2025, they opened their second location and introduced their Ride program, bringing the energy of big-city indoor cycling to Windsor with low lights, high-energy beats, and an immersive experience. It is a space they are incredibly proud of and worked hard to create for the Windsor community.

Outside the studio, Paulina is a proud mom of two who loves spending time with her family, thrifting, and listening to music. When she’s not chasing after her kids or hunting for a great vintage find, you’ll likely find her sweating it out in the studio.
