Maree Rice
Certified Pilates Teacher.
Originally from Taupo, Maree’s journey has taken her across the globe, living in Australia, India, Costa Rica, and the UK.
With over 25 years of experience in teaching Pilates, Maree’s passion for movement and fitness has grown through the years.
Her Pilates story began when she was a dance teacher and was introduced to Pilates. Instantly hooked, she pursued her Body Control Pilates certification in London in 2001.
Maree went on to successfully run her own Pilates studios in both the UK (17 years) and Costa Rica (5 years). She also had the incredible opportunity to complete Lolita San Miguel’s Master Mentor Program in 2010, further expanding her knowledge and expertise.
Having dealt with long-standing whiplash injuries and migraines, Maree found Pilates to be the perfect way to stay strong and headache-free, which fueled her passion for teaching. Now, she thrives on helping others experience the same strength, relief, and transformation through Pilates.
Outside of Pilates, Maree loves spending time outdoors, enjoying water skiing, snow skiing, and surfing.
