About
Jennifer’s love of dance led to her career in fitness which began in 1989. She discovered pilates in 1999 while rehabilitating an injury and recognized the benefits of incorporating pilates not only into her regular exercise routine, but also into her clients’ routines. Jennifer began the process of obtaining the comprehensive STOTT PILATES instructor certification in 2001, which is a rigorous, intensive yet contemporary approach to pilates. She owned and operated a private pilates studio in the Los Angeles area for 13 years, specializing in pain management.
After getting married in December of 2012, Jennifer relocated to the East Coast with her husband, Mark. She worked for Equinox in Bethesda, MD as the Pilates Coordinator until her husband’s work landed them in Virginia Beach, VA. She travels with Crystal Cruise as a guest pilates and yoga instructor when her schedule permits. Jennifer’s philosophy on exercise is that it should be results-oriented without being debilitating. Find what you enjoy doing and make it a part of your daily routine.
This philosophy on exercise is what led her to The GYROTONIC Method. She felt that there was a missing component to her personal routine so she decided to begin the next phase in her exercise journey. She completed both the GYROKINESIS and the GYROTONIC Pre-Trainings and the Foundations Level 1 Courses and completed the GYROKINESIS exam June 2021 and the GYROTONIC exam March 2023. Adding these modalities of exercise to her repertoire has greatly benefited not only her overall health and well-being but has also improved her teaching style, which ultimately helps her clients.
