Stacey Jernigan, M.S., M.T., NCPT
I have been teaching Pilates for over a decade! I originally became interested in Pilates after dealing with severe back pain from a car accident. I was initially skeptical when my friend suggested trying Pilates Reformer. But I was immediately amazed at how great my back felt! After one session, I was hooked and knew I wanted to learn how to teach it to help others.
With a Master's in Human Development and Family Studies, my experience shaped my ability to connect well with my clients. My private clients have ranged from a 12-year-old aiming to improve her dance skills, to a teenager with Polio seeking to improve leg function and build core strength, to an NFL client wanting to improve his speed and agility, to an 88-year-old working to improve his posture and balance, as well as his golf game.
In addition to Pilates, I have a background in Mommy and Me Fitness, Senior Fitness, and athlete-specific Pilates. After teaching private and group sessions for a few years, I became a Master Trainer and am truly passionate about guiding my students through the certification process. Watching them grow and develop into amazing instructors brings me so much joy!
The highlight of my life is my 14 year-old son, whom I adore. He keeps me on my toes and makes me laugh daily! I enjoy listening to music, paddleboarding, spending time at the beach, and working on my podcast in my spare time! Recently moving to the Sarasota area opened new opportunities for my Pilates practices and created excitement for me and my son to do the things we love.
