Bio
Before entering the fitness industry, Jibo worked as a flight attendant. While working in this high-stress profession, he realized the importance of maintaining one’s health and decided to pursue a career in the health and wellness industry.
With a keen interest in sports since childhood, Jibo pursued his ACE certification, and was then introduced to STOTT PILATES® in 2017 in the hopes of solving his shoulder, neck pain and spinal imbalance. Since then, Jibo’s physical problems have significantly improved, and he has promoted the benefits of Pilates to many people in need as an instructor. By continuously learning and gaining more experience, Jibo became a STOTT PILATES Certified Instructor in 2019. Having benefited from learning and practicing STOTT PILATES, Jibo hopes to introduce this holistic exercise system to more professionals to help a wider range of people. In February 2023, Jibo became a Merrithew® Instructor Trainer specializing in STOTT PILATES Matwork and Reformer. Jibo loves to explore the science of human movement and is adept at breaking down complex ideas to make them more accessible, helping his clients live healthier lives by better understanding themselves.
