SCOUT PROFILE SERIES - Meet Antonella

ANTONELLA BUDA

Age: 26

Star sign: Scorpio

Tell us about your day job: I work in my family business selling construction supplies. I am a jack of all trades in the business, I am the marketing and IT manager, and a purchasing officer, and dabble in a bit of sales as well. Definitely keeps me busy!

Favourite thing to do when you’re not doing your day job?  Either at the gym, doing a pilates class or out in nature enjoying a walk! 

How long have you been coming to Scout Pilates? Just over 1 month so far.

What keeps you coming back? The space is so beautiful and inspiring! The trainers are so lovely and they really care and love what they do. 

Favourite class and why? Any class with Vee or Bree. Both make you hate them in class but love them after class. Their classes both make me excited to move my body after a long day of sitting at a desk. 

Favourite pilates position?  The swan. Super fun especially once you get the hang of it!

Enough Pilates chat, what in your life gives you the most energy? Spending time with family or going for a Sunday afternoon walk. 

Tell us your favourite place to eat or drink in the Inner West and what you order when you’re there?  I'm a pizza kind of gal, at the moment there is a Pizza Bro's pop up at the Grifter Brewery. Any pizza they create is like heaven on earth! The cacio e pepe was my favourite last time. 

What advice would you give to your 15-year-old self? Don't wish your younger years away! Life is too short, go do some pilates and have some fun!

What was the last text message you received?  My friend asked me if we can change our yoga class to Saturday afternoon. 

If you could travel ANYWHERE tomorrow where would you go?  To Europe! Either somewhere in Italy or the South of France. Would love to be soaking up some sun at the beach with a croissant or plate of pasta in hand. 

What goal do you want to achieve by the end of the year? I just taught myself how to crochet, so I would love to make a whole blanket out of chunky wool.
