Bernice’s story with movement began long before she ever stepped into a Pilates studio. As a young dancer, she learned early on that the body could speak, express, and create in ways words never could. But it was during her years majoring in dance that she discovered something even more profound: movement could also heal. Through physiotherapy and Pilates, she found a home for her curiosity about how the body works and a deep belief that movement is medicine.

But Bernice isn’t just about movement – her creativity took her through several marketing and advertising roles, where she worked extensively with brands in music, sports, and FMCG. Now, she gets to do what she loves most at Focus: inspire others to move while shaping a brand she deeply connects with.

To Bernice, movement is a little bit magic: it lifts you, steadies you, and reminds you what it feels like to be fully alive. Her hope is that you find something in each session that makes you enjoy moving a little more, rather than chasing the end result.

Outside the studio, Bernice feels most at home in nature. She loves trekking and outdoor exploration, where movement feels instinctive and grounding. Every now and then, she disappears off-grid to reset and reconnect with how the body is meant to move.
