Instructor

Hi, I’m Elena! I’ve been teaching Pilates for over a year and love helping people feel stronger, more confident, and more connected to their bodies. My classes focus on intentional movement, building awareness, and creating a space where everyone feels comfortable and challenged at the same time.

Outside of Pilates, you can usually find me checking out local coffee shops, reading a good thriller, or watching anything on Bravo—from Real Housewives to Summer House.

Ali Gumbert

Instructor

Ali discovered Pilates three years ago and immediately recognized it as the missing piece of her fitness regime. Building on years of experience in yoga, weight training, and various forms of cardio, she found that the Reformer provided a level of core stability and body awareness that her other workouts were missing. This "lightbulb moment" transformed her personal practice and inspired her to transition into teaching. In her sessions, Ali creates a playful and fresh environment where students feel energized to explore their potential. She blends a modern, creative perspective with a focus on precision, helping clients leave the studio feeling taller, stronger, and more connected.

Rebecca Callen

Rebecca Callen

Instructor

Rebecca began practicing Pilates in 2024 and quickly fell in love with the way it allowed her to connect with her body and find a sense of flow. What started as a workout became something that positively influenced the way she moves and feels in all areas of her life. She became more aware of her posture, her breath, and how she engages her core—not only during Pilates, but in her other workouts and everyday movement.

In 2026, Rebecca completed her Attune teacher training, which deepened her own practice while teaching her how to help others discover that same connection and enjoyment through Pilates. Her training also opened her eyes to just how vast Pilates can be and how much it has to offer everyone.

She continues to practice, take classes, and pursue additional training to expand her understanding of Pilates and the many ways it can support how we move, feel, and connect with our bodies. As an instructor, Rebecca’s goal is to create an encouraging environment where clients can challenge themselves, tune into their bodies, and experience the joy that Pilates has brought into her own life.
