Terri O’Connell
Instructor
I am a runner! I have run over 20 mini marathons and plan to keep running. My passion is writing poetry as well as learning how to play the guitar and piano. I am a Cancer Survivor and hope to one day be able to speak about my illness and how it has changed my life for the better. When I am not teaching, you can find me in Nashville listening to local music or somewhere on a beach enjoying the sound of the waves. I decided to become a Pilates instructor a couple of years ago when I needed a change in my mind, body and spirit. Joseph Pilates said it best, "The mind, when housed within a healthful body, possesses a glorious sense of power." Before becoming certified, I would take classes when I had time and now I make the time. I am stronger, more focused and in better shape than I have been in a long time. Pilates has helped me see and be my BEST self. Exercise gives you strength, strength gives you power, power gives you motivation, and motivation feeds the soul.
