Alena fell in love with the Pilates method 15 years ago before life got busy. She came back to her daily practice to recover from a sciatic nerve injury 4 years ago. 3 years and 750 hours in, she started her 250 hr teacher training!

Her teaching style is very accommodating. She love a challenge but always give plenty of options to scale down, or scale up! Alena believe Pilates is for anyone and everyone can and should benefit from practice right where they are at in their fitness journey and life stage. All levels are welcome!

When she is not teaching or practicing Pilates, she is most likely found working the creative side of her brain in her interior design business, cheering on her boys somewhere in baseball parks around GA ⚾️ or walking with her pups - A Jack Russel Terrier named Zoey and Corgi named Rusty 🐾 🐾

Her kind of fun is nature walks, art galleries, sunsets, yin yoga classes and arthouse cinema.
