Meet Your Instructor
Shabnam Guvendik
After years of practicing Brazilian martial arts, Shabnam turned to pilates to heal from injury—and found her calling. With a background in both Pilates and yoga and more than 20 years of teaching experience, she brings a deep understanding of functional movement and human anatomy to every session.
Shabnam opened Mélange Studio in 2014 to offer something rare: a fully private, highly personalized approach to movement. Her teaching ranges from fitness, pre- and post-pregnancy, rehabilitation, and working with seniors to embrace the personal needs of the client.
Her approach is never one-size-fits-all. It’s not just about your body, but also about how your body feels today. Clients come to her seeking clarity, healing, and direction—and stay for the results.
