Yunchi calls herself a bookworm and enjoys various kinds of ethnic foods. Movement helps her fundamentally in providing fluid strength, graceful agility, decompressing length, spatial awareness in hiking, biking, and traveling, etc. Teaching gives her a deeper understanding of kindness, patience, humility and the importance of connection, nourishment and community while moving together. Yunchi has taught GYROTONIC® for 7 years and Classical Pilates for 13 years.
Born and raised near Shanghai, China, Yunchi came to the United States in 1998 after studying Hospitality management in Switzerland. She pursued her dream of becoming a concierge and became one at the prestigious St. Regis in Washington, D.C. While exploring the nation's Capitol area, she developed an interest for physical activities that were foreign to her childhood. After some years, minor injuries and some misalignment stopped her from enjoying those activities to the fullest. She looked for solutions and tried various pursuits to improve her health and fitness.
In 2012, Yunchi moved to Albuquerque to study Pilates at Momentum Studio. She completed the comprehensive teacher training program with 450+ hours and became a certified trainer. She is also trained and certified in the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®, GYROTONER®, LEG EXTENSION UNIT®.
