Dora
Founder & Instructor
With a lifelong connection to movement through ballet, swimming, and horse riding, Dora discovered Pilates in 2017 while recovering from a sports injury – an experience that reshaped her approach to training and wellbeing.
In March 2020, inspired by her professional experiences in the US and the UK, she opened her own Pilates studio, BFF Pilates, becoming the first to introduce dynamic Pilates to Budapest at the time.
Dora is certified in Classical Mat, Reformer, and Chair Pilates. Her teaching is precise and intentional, with a focus on strength, balance, and long-term results – and these same standards guide every instructor on the BFF Pilates team

Hi, I’m Kata – Studio Manager & Instructor at BFF Pilates
I’ve been with BFF since the very beginning. After years in the corporate world, I hit burnout and found my way to yoga as a way to slow down and reconnect. That journey led me to complete a Bikram yoga training, and later I joined the very first BFF Pilates instructor course – and never looked back. Outside the studio, I’m an avid horse rider, and I bring that same energy and focus into my classes. They’re dynamic, fast-paced, and always evolving – no two sessions are ever the same

Probody, Pilates Instructor
I tried many forms of movement – athletics, dance, boxing, gym training – but real presence came through horseback riding. Pilates brought the true breakthrough: discovering Reformer Pilates in 2020, I felt physical and mental transformation within weeks. I completed my teacher training at the London Pilates Academy and now teach alongside my main profession. I aim to create a calm, supportive environment where clients can turn inward and progress at their own pace. My classes are structured, mindful, and tailored to every level – available in both English and Hungarian.

Fitness Company, Pilates instructor
Pilates is more just a workout for me – it’s’ a way to recharge both physically and mentally.
I first discovered Pilates at BFF in 2020 as a client. The experience and the inspiring atmosphere led me to become part of the studio as an instructor. Since then, I have continued to learn and teach here, guided by the best.
My classes are rooted in Classical Pilates, complemented by strength and balance work. I focus on giving each client individual attention, creating sessions that are tailored, challenging and effective. .

Probody, Pilates Instructor
Sports have always played an essential role in my life. I began competing in fitness categories in 2013 and have been working as a personal trainer since 2015.
After my competition years, I sought a form of movement that could complement strength training – and in 2021, I discovered Pilates when I first joined a class at BFF. The variety of sessions, the balance between challenge and release, and the deep sense of focus immediately captivated me.
Through Pilates, I found the perfect harmony of strength and control – a practice I am passionate about sharing with others as an instructor.
My classes are dynamic and strengthening, always adapted to the group’s level – yet a touch of challenge is guaranteed every time.

PROBODY, Pilates oktató / Mat Pilates Instructor
Movement has always been part of my life – from horse riding and modern dance to the many forms I explored later. Pilates and running became my sources of balance, my “open-eyed meditations.” My journey began with Mat Pilates, where I first felt the harmony of breath, mind, and body. Discovering the Reformer deepened this connection and led me to complete Fitness Instructor and Reformer trainings. In my classes, I focus on mindful control, precision, and dynamic, energizing sequences that reflect the joy Pilates brings into my life.

London Pilates Academy, Dynamic Reformer Instructor
Sport has always shaped my life. After an injury and surgery forced me to give up the activity I loved most, I felt lost – until I discovered Reformer Pilates.
Its structure, mindfulness and anatomical foundation immediately resonated with me, leading me to complete a London-based teacher training. I teach in both English and Hungarian and practiced Pilates throughout pregnancy, which strengthened my body and supported recovery. I pay special attention to expecting mothers and clients rebuilding after injury.
My classes focus on controlled, precise movement in a supportive, empowering atmosphere for every level.

Movement has always been part of my life – from basketball to strength training – but over time, how movement made me feel became more important than performance. I found Pilates during a period of self-discovery, and it remains a space where everyone can find their own strength and balance. I don’t believe in a single ideal body; progress happens quietly, in your own rhythm. Working with many different people taught me how essential connection is. As an instructor, I focus on meeting clients where they are and supporting their personal journey – even as we move together in one shared space.

RBF Barre instructor
I was drawn to Barre for the way it lengthens, makes me feel stronger and restores alignment. After 10 years in the energy industry, I know firsthand how long hours, desk work and daily stress can take a toll on our posture.
Barre has become my way to reset, it gives me energy and clears my mind. In my classes expect intentional, full-body movement, deep muscle burn and breath-led flow. I can’t wait to move with you!
