She has worked as a Pilates trainer for the Staatstheater Kassel and the Tanztheater of the German National Theater Weimar, to name but a few. After 10 years of teaching in Germany, in 2008 she took a yearlong maternity leave. To this day, Ms Rohleder teaches at her studio along with various companies and institutions such as SAP and the Tanzfabrik Potsdam. Additionally, she continues to expand her knowledge, including learning about other forms of bodywork, such as Feldenkrais, the Susan Klein Technique and general anatomy.
