Hello! I am Tuğrul Sergen Yüksel, born in Istanbul. My journey in sports began at the age of 6 with Taekwondo, where I earned a black belt. At the age of 10, I discovered my passion for rowing, which I pursued for 9 years with Galatasaray Sports Club and the Turkish National Team.

Throughout my rowing career, I achieved 13 Turkish Championship gold medals and set a Junior 4x Turkish record. In 2023, I became the British Rowing Masters Champion in the single scull category. I hold a degree from the Faculty of Sport Sciences, Department of Coaching, and I am an EREPS Level 4 Certified Personal Trainer (PT).

Additionally, I am:

• An Athletic Performance Coach
• A Sports Nutrition Specialist
• An STA Level 2 Certified Swimming Teacher

During my professional rowing career, incorporating Pilates into my training routine had a profound impact on my strength and performance. Experiencing these benefits firsthand deepened my appreciation for Pilates and sparked a desire to learn more. I firmly believe that the postural benefits of Pilates are invaluable for anyone looking to build and maintain a strong body in everyday life.

This passion and the experience I gained from teaching Pilates led me to establish my boutique studio. I am thrilled to guide you on your journey of physical development and wellness.

I am dedicated to helping you achieve your fitness goals through personalized training, functional movement, and a holistic approach to health. Let’s start this journey together!
