Private and Semi-Private Sessions

I offer private and semi-private sessions in Pilates, yoga, and personal training. My specialties include scoliosis, spinal fusions, and other back care concerns. I see clients in person and virtually through Zoom. For in person session, I regularly see clients in Boise, Idaho. I frequently travel to Chicago, New York City, and Washington, DC to see private clients and teach workshops. The best way to know when I will be in Chicago, NYC, or DC is to subscribe to the Wellness In Motion newsletter.

Intro to Pilates Mat for People with Spinal Fusions & Scoliosis Course New dates coming soon! All sessions take place through Zoom. $275 for the 8-week series, Class size limited to 8. *This series focuses on moving well and discovering delight in movement while learning about scoliosis and/or spinal fusions at the same time! We will take time to understand scoliosis and spinal fusions, apply that knowledge to our own body, and discover how to modify Pilates for our individual needs and curve patterns. Every week you will receive a video of the entire class! In addition, you’ll receive pdf materials for exercises to focus on during the week and other supplemental material to help support the week’s theme. This series is a great choice for people trying to understand their scoliosis or spinal fusion better, for people who haven’t taken a Pilates series with Jen before, or for people who have been away from class for awhile. One of the most beautiful aspect of this Intro series is the sense of community! It’s one of my favorites to teach.*

“I just wanted to say I’ve greatly enjoyed the last 8 weeks. Starting from feeling “out of place” when it came to Pilates to realizing how much I can actually do with a spinal fusion is very reassuring and confidence boosting! I’m excited to get to implement all exercises into my weekly workouts and watch my strength increase! Thank you for all that you do for the scoliosis and spinal fusion community!” – Elpida
