Lisa Jones brings a strong passion for movement to her teaching. A pilates specialist with over 20 years' professional experience in the New York City dance and fitness communities, Lisa is committed to sharing her love of fitness and wellness with others. Her background in competitive running, Martha Graham technique, ballet, yoga, pilates, traditional fitness, and Gyrotonic® enables her to draw from a varied toolbox of movement experiences and vocabularies. She has trained in classical and contemporary pilates since 1995, earning her STOTT Pilates® Full Certification in 2002, and regularly pursues continuing education from the world's finest instructors and organizations. In 2010, Lisa certified as a Pre/Post-Natal Pilates Specialist™ through The Center for Women's Fitness by Carolyne Anthony. With a BA from New York University's Gallatin School of Individualized Study, Lisa's combined studies of Psychology and The Arts give her a unique insight into people-their hearts, minds, and process-that enriches her teaching and has led to an extremely loyal following.

An exceptionally motivating instructor, Lisa believes strongly in the power of the mind-body connection to increase health and wellness, maximize body awareness, and gain full enjoyment of one's life. Working with you individually to identify your goals and priorities, Lisa uses her skills as a teacher, healer, and coach to help you train your body to its full potential. Expect to feel not only the benefits of pilates-stronger/longer muscles, powerful core support, deeper breathing and relaxation, and improved posture and flexibility-but also an increased sense of well-being and body confidence following your sessions with Lisa.

“What makes my approach towards pilates unique is my emphasis on awareness and self-empowerment through exercise. Our training process will teach you to respect and care for your body as we work to achieve your goals. Safe instruction, proper form and pacing, and individually-tailored programs that educate are the hallmarks of my practice. Using my years of experience with pilates and other disciplines, I encourage you to have fun and explore your body's potential as we work towards your personal best. Pilates in its purest form is much more than a series of physical exercises-it is a lifestyle. I aim to help you take your pilates experience out of the studio and into your everyday life.”
