Laura Thomas
Instructor
Laura grew up dancing competitively, and when she stopped to pursue higher education she always missed it. Laura tried many workout classes, and struggled to find an exercise that resonated with her as well as dance did. In 2021 she attended my first group reformer class and it reminded me so much of how I would feel training for my dance performances. I continued to practice in my group classes, and in 2023 decided I would attend instructor training to deepen my knowledge and help share my passion for this exercise with others. I completed the Balanced Body Comprehensive Instructor Training with Blue Moon Pilates in Orange County, CA in June 2024 and began teaching immediately. I am actively completing my hours to earn my full internationally recognized certification. Balanced Body taught me to train the body in front of me, and how to safely incorporate exercises that can be built upon to get a client stronger and ultimately practicing the full repertoire. I am always looking to deepen my knowledge, and plan to pursue a Classical Pilates certification, also known as Contrology, in the future. Laura loves that Club Pilates makes the Pilates method more accessible to the general population. Joseph Pilates believed the whole world should be doing his exercises, and Club Pilates makes that more achievable.
