Carla Bowling
CP Instructor
In Carla’s opinion, an instructor should be part motivating and part educating. Carla’s classes provide knowledge of the Pilates Method, along with encouragement throughout the workout. Her energy is magnetic. She keeps her classes fresh by offering something different and amazing every time she teaches! She strives to help you see and feel the benefits quickly through concentration and inward focus of the mind over the body. She’s stays watchful over her students to check on form and position of each exercise.
Carla started her Pilates journey in CP Annapolis a few years ago. As a member she experienced first-hand how Pilates helped her from old gymnastics injuries. She jumped all-in to complete the comprehensive 500-hour CP Teacher Training Program and has been passionately and enthusiastically teaching since Jan. 2019.
The incredible benefits of her breathing through her own personal Pilates practice has been life changing and is what inspires her. Carla says, “taking our life-giving breath for granted is so common and easily forgotten through our busy day to day living”. She wants your time in her class to be refreshing, cleansing, detoxifying and energizing!
Carla’s happiest when she sees her students have their “AH-HA” moments. Witnessing them accessing a deeper self-awareness and celebrating their new ability and break through makes her heart smile. Carla is happiest too, when she’s in her kitchen, cookin’ up a storm!
