The Novaes Method
The foundation of Tatiana Novaes Coaching
Twenty years of working with dancers, athletes and rehabilitation clients have shaped a way of teaching that pays attention to the small things — alignment, breath, the muscles you didn’t know you had. Every session is built around the person in front of me, so the work you do here translates into how you sit, walk, lift and move in the rest of your life.
Professionals who sit all day
You spend long hours at a desk, and you can feel it — tight shoulders, a stiff lower back, less energy than you’d like. Sessions are designed to undo that, gently and progressively.
Who I work with?
People returning to movement
Maybe you’ve taken time off, had an injury, or feel less confident in your body than you used to. We start where you are and build from there.
People in pain or recovery
I work alongside physiotherapists, osteopaths and rehabilitation specialists. If you’ve been referred or are managing a long-term issue, your sessions will be adapted accordingly.
Dancers, athletes and performers
With a background in professional dance and movement analysis, the work goes well beyond basic technique. Expect precise feedback and serious attention to detail.
What changes for my clients
Most people come in wanting to feel stronger or less stiff. Within a few weeks, they start noticing other things too.
Better posture
Small adjustments to how you hold yourself become automatic.
Strength that matters
Stairs, suitcases, sport — what real life asks of your body.
Less recurring pain
The aches that came back every week started to fade
More body awareness
You stop guessing and start training with intention

Tatiana is a wonderful teacher. My husband and I have had Pilates classes with her for years ,and she is the tops! We really feel the benefit, and she always varies the exercises, so it is never routine or boring. We could not recommend her highly enough.

I love the possibility of doing Tatiana's classes from another country! Even through the camera, she is able to watch the minimum details. She offers a variety of exercises, always caring about individual needs. Super recommend!
