I am Tanja Schröter-Noll founder and owner of The Sense. I was born in Switzerland, lived in the United States and Singapore, before moving back to Switzerland in 2013.

In 2003, having experienced the benefits of Pilates myself, I chose to leave the corporate world to study the Pilates method. In my eyes, the practice of Pilates provides incomparable body awareness, strength and balance. I believe that Pilates constitutes a great foundation for any other form of exercise.

I opened my first studio in 2005 in Singapore then relocated to Basel Switzerland in 2013.

"I always wanted to try Pilates, but never dared to sign up for classes, and then I met Tanja. She just said - "What is holding you back? Just try" - Four years on and I am still practicing Pilates."

"Tanja found my troubled areas and chose exercises to strengthen them, I am beyond grateful to be looking and feeling better than I have in years."

"With two young kids a bad back and hips, my physiotherapist suggested Pilates. I was looking for a no fuss environment to pick up Pilates. If I wanted a challenge, Tanja would bring it, if I felt tired she would give me a nice restorative session. Pilates is now the core of my exercise routine, but I am able to add other sports and remain pain free."
