About Janine
Hi, I’m Janine.
I’ve been a STOTT Certified Pilates Teacher since 1999, with a degree in Human Kinetics and additional certifications in golf and sport conditioning, Pilates for neurological conditions, yoga, and back pain.
But my passion for Pilates began with my own body.
I was very active in sports growing up, but years of activity left me with chronic knee and back pain. Pilates was the answer that changed everything. It transformed the way I moved and helped me become completely pain-free. More importantly, it opened my eyes to the powerful relationship between aligned posture, correct breathing, balanced strength, and the deep muscles of the core.
That experience sparked a passion for helping others understand and connect with their own bodies—and it has shaped my teaching journey ever since.
More than 25 years later, I’m still pain-free and moving better than I did in my 30's. I believe that feeling strong, capable, and at home in your body can make a profound difference in how you experience life.
I’d love to help you do the same—so you can stay active, feel your best, and keep doing the things you love for years to come. Life is meant to be lived fully.

Janine's classes are great! With so much attention to detail about the Pilates movements I never question as to if I might hurt myself by doing something wrong. I feel so much more flexible after her classes. Janine explains very clearly as to how each movement affects different body parts, so it's a "learning" experience mentally and physically! Ann D.
Janine is an outstanding teacher – patient, kind, encouraging, helping you move forward safely. She watches carefully to make sure your form and alignment are correct and provides modifications when necessary. Her feedback after each session was invaluable. She is a truly gifted teacher and wonderful human being to boot! Jane W.
I find a lot of organized yoga and Pilates classes follow a set routine, which can get boring over time. Janine brings something new to every class which makes the hour fly by. I love the attention to form and progression in exercises. I highly recommend her classes to anyone who values mobility and building core as part of fitness routine. R. Hunt
