Born and raised in Buenos aires, Argentina in 1984. Alejandra Silva always expressed a certain love and appreciation for sports. So it was no surprise that she decided to study physical/sport education at the University of Buenos Aires, where she earned her bachelor degree.
Alejandra played volleyball at the federate level until a set back from a knee injury. It was during this period of rehabilitation for her knee that she discovered the benefits of Pilates. And so her love affair and passion for Pilates was born. In 2005, she became a certified Pilates teacher in Argentina. Alejandra continues her studies in Pilates to this day to improve her method of teaching and knowledge in the field.
By 2008 she decided to uproot and relocate to Marbella, Spain. It was during this time she cofounded OM Equilibirium (Health&Wellness) with Jose Ruiz. Alejandra is also a certified masseur focusing on sport, relaxation and shiatsu massages. Whether she is conducting a private Pilates class or in a group setting, Alejandra thrives on giving 100 percent of her knowledge,dedication and professionalism to her pupils.
