Emily Smith
General Manager and Instructor
Emily grew up in the Austin area, where she began dancing at the age of 3. She fell in love with dance and in her high school ballet classes, she was introduced to Pilates. In May of 2021, Emily graduated Cum Laude from Texas A&M University, earning her B.S. in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Dance Science (Whoop!). While she was at TAMU, Emily took Pilates classes as part of her coursework. She also conducted and published undergraduate research analyzing hamstring strength and flexibility on the Pilates Exo Chair and Reformer! During her senior year, Emily began the teacher training program through Club Pilates in College Station. She completed her certification in the fall of 2021, and has been teaching at Club Pilates Memorial ever since! Emily loves to focus on proper alignment and muscular activation in her classes to ensure injury prevention and get the most out of every class! Emily wants to make sure every member feels confident in every exercise, and that everybody who comes in knows they CAN do Pilates! She looks forward to sharing her love of Pilates with all of our members!
