Melissa Wong is the co-founder of Pilatique Pilates Studios and has always been a fitness enthusiast. She started her career in the fitness arena in 2000 as a part-time fitness instructor teaching in various gyms. She transitioned into a full-time fitness career after graduating from university with a Bachelor of Business Studies.
Mel, as she is better known, is very passionate in dance and this very passion has led her to many endeavours. In 2003, having discovered that Pilates complemented her dance performances, Mel’s passion for Pilates started to grow as she sees how it can help to strengthen her and other individuals as well. She then attended a basic training program held by one of Kuala Lumpur’s pioneer Pilates studio and started teaching Mat Pilates soon thereafter.
An opportunity arose in 2004 and Mel underwent STOTT PILATES™ Mat and Reformer training, and continued her journey as a certified STOTT PILATES™ Trainer until today, and will be forever, as she foresees.
Mel co-founded Pilatique Pilates Studios in 2005 with her husband, Steven. She continued and progressively attended the full series of STOTT PILATES™ courses both in Malaysia and Canada. She achieved STOTT PILATES™ Full Certification Instructor in 2008 and moved on to be a STOTT PILATES™ Instructor Trainer in that same year.
Besides Pilates, Mel is also the first Head Teacher for Les Mill’s dance program, BodyJam, for Fitness First Malaysia. Fitness first is the world’s largest privately owned health club group. Mel was appointed a presenter for the Les Mills Quarterly Workshops.
Since 2006, Mel has had the honour to work with Nike as a chosen Master Trainer for Nike Rockstar Workout, which has given her the opportunity to represent Team Malaysia in Singapore and Japan. In 2007, Mel again trained instructors for the Nike Rockstar Workout program in Thailand.
Pilatique Pilates Studios proudly became a STOTT PILATES™ Licensed Training Center in 2008. Mel will continuously be upgrading her personal knowledge and development to train and groom more Certified STOTT PILATES™ Trainers that are seriously lacking in the local industry and also worldwide. She has, and will always be dedicated and committed to Pilates by giving the best of her to Pilatique’s students, clients and beyond.

Shawn began practising Pilates on the mat while living in Japan 7 years ago. A friend who was a STOTT PILATES™ certified trainer first introduced her to the STOTT PILATES™ method. When Shawn and her family moved to Kuala Lumpur in 2005, she was able to begin using the STOTT PILATES™ Reformer and became even more enthusiastic about Pilates.
After training on the Reformer and small apparatus like the fit ball for 2 more years as a client, she decided to work towards becoming a certified instructor.
As of March 2007, she is certified in STOTT PILATES™ Level 1 Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Chair, and Barrels. She strives to teach her clients the importance of learning and using the 5 Basic Principles in STOTT PILATES™ in all aspects of their training, especially applying them in their daily lives.
A mother of 4 children, Shawn is crowned as “Wondermom” amongst her peers at Pilatique. She is truly a dynamic and ever positive person who juggles her roles as a mother, wife and Pilates trainer wholeheartedly.

Way back in 2004, Karen joined a gym for the first time, thinking that she will just learn about keeping fit and healthy but that was not so. She discovered Pilates there and fell in love with the concept of the mind and body connection.
For the next 2 years, Karen diligently practised Pilates and one day; she was offered a position of Apprentice Instructor by a Pilates studio in Damansara Heights. After some duration of time into her apprenticeship, Karen enrolled for a Polestar Series training course with Sky Pilates Studio in Singapore, and graduated as a certified full studio Pilates instructor in February 2009.
With hundreds of hours of study, self-practice and mentoring under her belt, Karen understands that her clients’ mind and body connection is of utmost priority when she imparts her Pilates teaching to them.

Christina was a student of Physiotherapy studies and while in college, she got to know what Pilates is about. When she graduated with a diploma in 2009, she had already decided to embark on a new journey into the world of Pilates. She knew how far she could go in future and was ready for the hard work involved in being a Pilates instructor. Armed with no knowledge and experience in the field, she joined Pilatique Studio as a trainee, and without hesitation too.
After completing a series of training sessions at the Pilatique Studio, Christina passed her exam and is now a certified STOTT PILATES™ Trainer in Mat & Reformer. She has a strong belief in her ability to understand her clients and to effectively structure a Pilates workout that combines the know-how of Physiotherapy into a comprehensive fitness regime to meet individual needs.

With her vast sports background that dates back to her school days, it is no wonder that Jothee chose to study Physiotherapy when it was time to pursue her tertiary education. She joined Malaysian Allied Health Science Academy (MAHSA) as a new student in 2006 and became a diploma graduate in Physiotherapy in 2009.
She continued to search for the knowledge and skills which could compliment to her qualification. Finally , she found STOTT PILATES™ through a career seminar which goes along hand in hand with her Physiotherapy knowledge. Through many, many hours of study and sheer hard work, Jothee is now a certified STOTT PILATES™ Trainer in Mat & Reformer at Pilatique Studio.
Her vision is to offer her clients a very creative but personalized workout regime that combines Physiotherapy and Pilates effectively in accordance with the individualized fitness level.
