Meredith Popp
Instructor
Born and raised in Austin, Meredith was introduced to Pilates in early 2015. She was wanting to start a workout routine that was good to her body, increase flexibility, and to help improve overall strength. After just a few sessions she became addicted immediately!
Towards the end of 2015, Meredith was diagnosed with endometriosis and found that Pilates was her go-to exercise program following surgery. In a short amount of time, Pilates helped to heal and strengthen her core while keeping symptoms at bay. During this time, she discovered something that would change her view on fitness: it significantly reduced the chronic pain in her body!
In the summer of 2017, she decided to take a big leap and follow her passion (obsession) with Pilates and began teacher training with Balanced Body. Her teaching style stresses the connection between the mind and body with a strong focus on form. She believes a great workout can challenge you, yet also relax you - it can become a very meditative experience! When she is not teaching, Meredith enjoys reading, stand-up comedy and the occasional rock concert! She also loves animals and is constantly spoiling her dog Indiana, and cat Cassie.
