Lead Pilates Instructor, Lindsey Patel
Lindsey began doing Pilates to help relieve stress and connect with her friends. After two sessions she was hooked. She experienced less anxiety, better posture, and reduced pain in her body. In 2009, she decided she needed to know as much as possible about Pilates and the human anatomy so she could share this magical practice with her loved ones so she became certified in Pilates mat and equipment through Balanced Body in 2009. She later earned her Comprehensive Pilates certification in 2013 as well as an Associate's Degree in Kinesiology. She continues to bring a unique take on Pilates with her Yin Yoga teachings, which she earned a certification in in 2017.
When she is not teaching Pilates or practicing yoga you might find Lindsey biking around the city with her husband and daughter or with her nose in a good book.
