Muriel, known to most as Mumu, has always been an enthusiastic mover. Her love for movement brought her from the Swiss Alps to London where she completed a Contemporary Dance Diploma at the Laban Centre. This is where she experienced first hand the great benefits of Pilates and developed a strong interest in holistic movement training and injury prevention, two topics very close to home.

Love brought her to Australia where Mumu’s enthusiasm and fervour to learn more was met with Karin’s inspiring teaching.

Meeting Karin opened a whole new world of possibilities and gave her a more contemporary science-based understanding of the body’s interconnectedness. art of motion’s holistic and up to date approach to functional exercise and exercise sequencing was refreshing for Mumu, and a memorable turning point in her life and career.

She was a senior lecturer for several years with art of motion before becoming the principle lecturer, team educator in Australia and then senior educator. This has kept Mumu on her toes as well as satisfied her eagerness to continue learning and share her passion for holistic movement.

Her journey continued becoming a certified Anatomy Trains in Motion teacher and a certified lecturer for Slings Myofascial Training in 2014. She has enjoyed this journey greatly already and knows there is more to learn for evermore, which both inspires and excites her!

Travelling is in her nature. You can find her teaching and lecturing internationally in Switzerland, Europe, and Australasia!
