Dawn S
Dawn began her Pilates practice in 2001, while living in Chicago. Pilates aided in her postpartum recovery, and she decided to become an instructor shortly thereafter. She studied at a boutique studio, in Chicago, through Power Pilates. Her Pilates Mat and Comprehensive Training (a 600 hour program), was completed in 2006. In 2007, she began working at Equinox Health Club, on Michigan Avenue, in Chicago, where she remained for 14 years, holding positions of Senior Instructor, Studio Manager, and Lead Teacher Trainer. Her clientele has included athletes, body builders, musicians, politicians, seniors, and teenagers. In 2020 she began her own Pilates based business, ‘Your Element Wellness,’ teaching virtually, and in person. She also designs jewelry, and enjoys repurposing furniture.
In 2022, Dawn moved back to Michigan, to be closer to family, and very soon after began working at Club Pilates! She loves watching clients progress, and when they start to notice changes in their own body. Her favorite part of working for CP is her family of coworkers, and the supportive environment the members have created for each other.
