Meet Rya Letham.
I help clients empower themselves through the mindful movement practices of Pilates and yoga, both online and in-person.
Inspired by the healing power of movement and nutrition, I have studied and worked in the field of health education for over 25 years. I hold a bachelors degree in Human Kinetics, program Exercise Science, from U.B.C., a Bachelors of Education from S.F.U. and studies in nutrition. I completed my advanced yoga teacher training in Rishikesh India, studying Akhanda, including meditation and restorative training. I have worked with diverse groups of people, including children, seniors, prenatal and postpartum mothers and English as a second language students. My understanding of the body and love for learning shines through in my practice.
As a mother of 2, I am forever grateful for the Pilates system which has assisted me in regaining my physical strength and agility postpartum. I completed my Classical Pilates apprenticeship at Whistler Pilates. I am also certified in the Core Confidence program; exercises designed to help retrain your centre postpartum.
In response to the evolving world, I currently teach Pilates and yoga privates and group classes both online and in-person. The students who work with are committed to their weekly movement practices, as they experience the benefits of their uniquely tailored workouts in mindfulness and joy.

I am motivated by the nature of infinity, infinite nature, one’s true nature and being in nature.
