Mariana
Mariana embarked on her Pilates journey in St. Louis, MO while she was training as a pre-professional ballet dancer. She quickly discovered the magic of this movement practice as a cross training method that helped her feel prepared to tackle rigorous rehearsals, but also adopted Pilates as a healthy lifestyle. While pursuing her BFA at Texas Christian University, Mariana had the opportunity to turn her love of Pilates into a career to help others with their movement practices. She currently holds her degree in Ballet as well as a comprehensive Pilates teacher training certificate, culminating in over 650 hours of coursework. Additionally, Mariana earned her NCPT (Nationally Certified Pilates Instructor) credential. She has experience working with athletes, dancers, pre and post-natal clients, as well as those with various injuries. Mariana is excited to continue learning from the other remarkable instructors at Club Pilates. She hopes to help her clients find a greater sense of mobility after each session, a blend of strength and flexibility, and to walk out of the studio feeling on top of the world!
