History
Established in 2002.
STUDIO 1 Pilates n Movement began in 2002 in Baltimore in the classic Pilates fashion, to heal myself, then teach to others. The mission is to provide pilates with a personal approach in a friendly and inviting environment. With over 16 years of success, looking forward to adding you to our long history of happy students.
Our bodies need to move, and move pain free. I am here to facilitate that process!
Meet the Manager: Wallis M.
My teaching began with Classical Ballet, and some Flamenco. I am a Royal Academy of Dance Certified Teacher. A few years into my teaching career, I began to have one severe injury after another. This led me to a path of resolving unfavorable movement and gait patterns created primarily by Severe Scoliosis. Extensive study of Alexander Technique privately, then pilates began the path of putting me, a sort of "Humpty Dumpty" back together again. Time and again the theory and practice proves itself, causing me to be passionate to its teaching.
