Meet Our Staff – Shelley M
How long have you been teaching Pilates? – Good question. I am not actually sure. I started teacher training in 2014, so maybe 8-9 years?
What has been your favorite teaching moment? I love it when someone discovers a new movement, something they didn’t think they could do.
What made you decide to teach Pilates/Yoga? I enjoyed Pilates from my very first intro class with Carey and started the teacher training program to develop my own practice. After diving deeper into the method, I was excited to share Pilates with other people.
Give us some info about you! Where did you grow up? I was born in Grinnell and grew up in Marengo.
What brought you to the Iowa City/North Liberty area? I initially came to Iowa City for graduate school. After leaving the area for a few years, I moved back to be closer to family.
What is something about you that might surprise your students? I wanted to be an aerospace engineer before deciding on a career in physical therapy.
Any hobbies? I enjoy cycling and a variety of other outdoor activities. My newest hobby is trying to keep a growing collection of houseplants alive.
Make an appointment with Shelley here!
