Beatrice Eggimann

Beatrice Eggimann is a dedicated trainer, educator, and mother with more than 25 years of expertise in movement, anatomy, and holistic health. Her work bridges science, somatics, and personal transformation. Originally trained in informatics and laboratory sciences, Bea followed her calling and founded Pilates Bern in 2004. She later established Pilates Zürich, which she entrusted to new leadership in 2025 to focus on mentoring, training, and international collaborations. Through Pilates and FAMO Fascia Movement, Bea helps people connect body and mind, cultivating mindful movement and deep personal awareness. Her commitment to Pilates’ roots led her to complete Lolita San Miguel’s two-year Pilates Master Mentor Program in 2010, earning the distinction of Second Generation Pilates Teacher. In 2015, she graduated from Cara Reeser’s Kathy Grant Heritage Training®, further deepening her connection to Pilates’ foundational teachings. Bea’s approach is enriched by continuous international study with leading educators in Anatomy, Motor Control, and Fascial Movement. With dedication and care, she supports women in the pre- and postnatal stages as well as in pelvic and core health, working closely with midwives, physiotherapists, and other health professionals. She is the founder of a Pilates-based, fascia-focused Pre- & Postnatal Trainer Program, integrating movement expertise with the wisdom of lived experience. As faculty with Balanced Body, Bea teaches Anatomy in Three Dimensions, sharing insights from her international dissection studies. She is also part of the art of motion team, where she teaches Pilates and FAMO Fascia Movement. As a contributor to the FAMO Pre- & Postnatal Program, Bea draws inspiration from Karin Gurtner’s Fascia Movement approach to deepen both her practice and her teaching. She is also a Medical Stretching Expert and member of the Bewegungsakademie, collaborating with colleagues to advance movement education and holistic health practices. A lifelong learner, Bea’s curiosity about anatomy, fascia, and the body–mind connection continues to fuel her teaching, research, and personal growth.
