  Asia

  Instructor

  Asia was introduced to Pilates through her ballet dance training with the Houston Ballet Academy and the American Ballet Theater in NYC. Throughout the various dance training curriculum she has taken, Pilates has always been one of the required classes. Asia began to take Pilates classes outside of the dance studio as well, which is how she discovered Club Pilates. Pilates for her has surpassed being a required part of dance curriculum, and has really become a way of life. This was solidified with Asia going through the Club Pilates 500-hour Comprehensive Certification Program. Asia loves Pilates because the principles integral to dance training are also emphasized in Pilates- the importance of deep core support, pelvic alignment, and maintaining this alignment while keeping the movement fluid. Other benefits of Pilates for Asia, is that it helps keep her toned, flexible, and strengthens her spine all while not being too rigorous on her joints- which to her is the best combo! Outside of Pilates, she likes to donate and volunteer at the local animal shelter, and find forever homes for animals without a home.
