Reformer med Sara Lisa

I’m Norwegian-Italian, 36 years old, working in humanitarian affairs by day and delving into dance and movement by night. My passion for social dance led me to look for ways to better understand my body, improve my balance and coordination, and move with more strength and ease. That journey led me to Christine and Balanced Body Pilates—and a missing piece of the puzzle clicked into place.

My main dances are Brazilian Zouk and Lambada, but I love exploring movement in all its forms, including tango, salsa, kizomba, ballet and contemporary. I co-founded the Oslo Lambada Association, where I teach lead and follow technique with a focus on connection—to ourselves, the floor and our partner—through movement and breath.

Now I’m excited to bring Pilates to the social dance community. I want to help dancers develop the body awareness, strength and control that allow us to move with greater freedom and confidence. I’ve come to believe that becoming a better dancer also means training outside the dance studio—whether at the gym, in the Pilates studio or in the water.

My classes are designed with social dancers in mind: a space to slow down, tune into your body and build a stronger foundation for the dancing you love. You don’t need to dance at any particular level—or even be a dancer. Curiosity about movement is enough.

P.S. My classes are also very much for fellow bureaucrats and office workers who need to give their bodies some love after a long day at the computer.
