Paige R.
Instructor
I recently retired from professional dancing and am now a full-time Pilates instructor. I danced with several companies in my 12-year career including Dance Kaleidoscope, Eugene Ballet and Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre. I had a lumbar disc injury that wasn’t healing well, so I tried Pilates and never looked back! I went from daily back pain to occasional tugs or tightness because the Pilates method really works. That’s when I decided to get my comprehensive teacher training through Pilates Instructor Academy in 2022 and started teaching at Pilates Indy Inc and Club Pilates in Indianapolis. I am a nationally certified teacher through the NPCP and completed the Girls Gone Strong Pre & Postnatal Certification Program in 2024. I have worked with clients of all ages and abilities from professional athletes to cancer survivors and teenagers with scoliosis. I love helping people learn how Pilates can enhance their life. It certainly extended my dance career, and I plan on using it to keep my body happy and moving. I recently relocated to Eugene with my husband and two rescue cats and am so thrilled to share my knowledge and love of Pilates with the community. When I’m not teaching you might find me hiking the Butte, buying earrings at the Saturday Market, or getting a large coffee with a friend.
