Rafaela Savoia

Founder

Rafaela Savoia is a Brazilian sophomore at Gulliver Prep and the founder of Reset & Recover. With a background in competitive gymnastics and swimming, she has spent years in high-pressure athletic environments that emphasized performance over recovery. Through her own experience, she became interested in Pilates as a way to support both physical recovery and mental balance. Seeing how stress and burnout are often normalized in sports, Rafaela created Reset & Recover to reframe recovery as an essential part of training and athlete well-being.

Luiza Bahniuk

Social Media Director

Luiza is a Brazilian sophomore at Gulliver Prep and a former competitive swimmer. Through her experience in athletics, she became interested in wellness and Pilates as tools for recovery and balance outside of training. As the Social Media Director for Reset & Recover, Luiza is responsible for shaping the initiative’s digital presence and visual direction. She focuses on communicating the mission clearly and thoughtfully, helping present Reset & Recover in a way that feels intentional and aligned with its purpose.
