About

Violetta Zivkovic

Violetta Zivkovic works in two disciplines: Pilates, and hands-on face and bodywork.

Pilates

She has taught Pilates since 2014, with more than 10,000 hours across Melbourne studios and luxury superyachts. Movement came first. She trained as a dancer and gymnast from the age of three and was performing professionally by fifteen, and the injuries that came with that life led her to Pilates.

She trained with Balanced Body in Nosara, Costa Rica, under master teacher Page Sieffert, and has continued her education in the USA, Spain, France and Australia. In Melbourne she has taught at One Hot Pilates, Sum of Us Studio and Barre Body, contributed to the One Hot Pilates teacher training, ran sold-out workshops in myofascial release, and taught from her own home studio, online and in corporate settings.

Face and Body

Her hands-on work spans deep tissue massage for common injuries, lymphatic drainage for face and body, buccal and facial sculpting, gua sha and body contouring. In October 2026 she completed further professional development in the StretchA Method with Sandra Jersby, from Los Angeles, and specialised intraoral, head, neck and TMJ release with Principal Physiotherapist Kathleen Seagar of Move Better in Brisbane.

Since 2019 she has been Pilates Teacher and Spa Manager on a 110m private superyacht, where she runs both the Pilates program and the spa. She has designed Pilates studios for superyachts and private homes.
