About Tess
I am a third generation classical Pilates instructor, and movement is my passion. I strive to help my clients move mindfully and deepen the connection between their mind and body. I offer "concierge Pilates sessions" where I'll come to your home/place of business, and bring a few small pieces of equipment with me for your workout. You'll do a full-body mat Pilates workout, and develop strength, flexibility, and control. I'm also available for small or large group classes - from a group of friends working out together all the way to a corporate event or group class of 20+!
My favorite thing about Pilates is how easily each movement can be adapted to challenge every fitness level, from a newcomer to the gym to a professional athlete! My love for the Pilates method is summed up in this quote by Mr. Joseph Pilates himself "A few well-designed movements properly performed in a balanced sequence are worth hours of doing sloppy calisthenics or forced contortion." Note: It is important to me to bring Pilates to those who otherwise might not be able to afford the prices in Pilates studios. If you'd like to chat about potential discounts on sessions, please feel free to contact me!
I started teaching fitness classes as an undergraduate dance major at Illinois State University in 2010. In 2014 I graduated, and began focusing specifically on Pilates. I completed my first certification through Balanced Body in 2015. In 2017, I was accepted into the teacher training program through Alycea Ungaro's Real Pilates NYC, and completed a 1000+ hour classical pilates certification program.
2010-2014 Taught group fitness classes at the Illinois State University Recreation Center (yoga, pilates, kickboxing, spin, bootcamp, Zumba, etc) 2014 Graduated with a B.A. in Dance Performance, a B.A. in Recreation Management, + a French minor 2015 Earned my Mat + Reformer certificate through Balanced Body Pilates 2018 Graduated from the Alycea Ungaro Real Pilates Teacher Training Program and became a third generation classical pilates teacher

I have taught all types of people: men, women, athletes, elderly people looking to keep moving, people recovering from knee/hip replacements, people with scoliosis, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, pregnant women, women going through IVF, teenage and professional dancers, and many more!
The most important advice I can offer is to find out what your trainer's qualifications are! Pilates is not trademarked - so anyone can say that they teach Pilates. You can literally get a Pilates certificate on Craigslist for $99 and a weekend workshop. Please make sure that whoever trains you is well-educated, knows how to work with your specific injuries/conditions/needs, and maintains their equipment properly!

Tess is a wonderful Pilates instructor. She is knowledgeable and truly demonstrates a passion for teaching. She is not afraid to correct your movement while motivating you to improve. I have found a new appreciation for Pilates due to her passion.
Tess is very knowledgeable about the human anatomy, which makes her perceptive to your body’s issues. She notices all the nuances of how your body moves and is prepared to make adjustments that work best to advance you in your workouts. Tess is also a dancer, and with a dance background and an active adult myself, I believe this further provides her with the tools to understand and adjust for your body’s issues and capabilities.
She has an easy-going and considerate demeanor and stays focused on your workout throughout the duration.
Tess works you out with the intensity you ask and the intensity she knows you can handle. You will see and feel the results within a few sessions. Be prepared to sweat!
Working with Tess has changed my life! I started Pilates with her to help resolve some lower back issues I was having, and Pilates has helped a bunch.
I feel a huge improvement in my core strength and overall energy level.
Tess keeps my sessions fun and she is always learning new things to teach me. I cannot recommend her highly enough!View more recommendations
