About
Bethany is a Pilates teacher living locally for over 20 years. Bethany got into Pilates after completing her graduate degree in Library & Information Science at the University of Pittsburgh and then raising her two boys. After years of trail running with friends, her body started to feel the wear and tear. Bethany looked for something to replace the strength and fitness she got from running. This is what ultimately led her to Pilates. That was the game changer. was captivated by the deep mind-body connection and the physical challenges Pilates offered.
Bethany wanted to pursue her Pilates education and become a certified Pilates teacher. (Balanced Body University's Pilates Teacher Training Program). Bethany is now able to share her love of Pilates with her clients and assist in the mind body connection that has enhanced her life.
Bethany’s classes will focus on building core strength, which is the foundation of aging gracefully. Bethany will teach you all about proper form and how to exercise correctly, so you can keep your body performing as efficiently as possible as you age.
What excites Bethany the most is helping people connect with their bodies in a meaningful way. Bethany will strive to create a space where clients feel challenged, supported, and empowered. Pilates isn't just about physical strength - it's about nurturing the body, mind, and spirit. Bethany is truly passionate about offering this opportunity to her clients and guiding them on their own transformative journey.
Why Pilates?
Pilates targets the transverse abdominis (TA), our deepest abdominal muscle and the key to spinal support. The other component of Pilates is the diaphragm (the breathing muscle) which is critical for correctly activating the TA. Together, these 2 muscles ensure that we get the results we are looking for in core strengthening. Besides core strength, people love Pilates because aesthetically it shrinks our waistline, improves out posture and helps with overall conditioning.
