About
Form In Motion was born out of owner and instructor Dorothy’s passion for movement, in particular, the Garuda Method.
While watching an instructor’s Instagram post one day, she noticed the technique that she was practicing and started to find out how she could learn to move in the same fluid and beautiful manner. She flew to Australia and the UK to learn from James D’ Silva, founder of the Garuda Method, and realised how uplifted and at peace she felt after each session.
As she grew to understand the principles of the method more, she was convinced that more people would benefit from practicing the method. Having taught Pilates and Barre for the last 5 years, she was determined to share the Garuda Method with the movement community in Singapore.
The name ‘Form In Motion’ is inspired by a book and exhibition of the same title, by renowned architect, Zaha Hadid, whose work is described as being able to ‘disintegrate traditional boundaries of space’ by ‘converting it into a singular, forceful and fluid “synthesis”‘ (Quote: Arch2o Magazine). Dorothy feels that this statement reflects the organic, fluid and dance-like movement of the Garuda Method.
