Mieke le Roux
Founder and owner of Performance Pilates, Mieke is passionate about life. She is a mother of two as well as a sports girl who cycles, competes in saddle seat horse riding and triathlons with many competitions in all three disciplines behind her back.
She is a people’s person, loves sharing her experience and always has time for a laugh. With her sports background she has found that Pilates has helped her recover and keep from injury whilst training for various sporting events. And thus, after achieving Pilates certification with Trifocus Fitness Academy, Stellenbosch University and Stott Pilates, 13 years ago Mieke started her Pilates journey opening the Performance Pilates studio at Val de Vie estate, Paarl.
With her sports background it is a goal of hers to introduce the benefits of Pilates to as many sports and active people as possible, to educate people about the increase in performance, wellbeing, strength and decrease in injury. Because it has helped her with her performance, strength and endurance during many competitions she is always keen to share her experience and help others gain the same and better experience.
Working with a team of physiotherapists, biokinetics and chiropractors she strives to ensure injury free training and rehabilitation for all and to help build a new lifestyle with love for the body.
