Our Pilates Instructors:

Diana Chrisagis

Diana is married with 3 children. She was introduced to pilates after an extensive surgical procedure on her spine (lumbar fusion). She was in considerable pain, unable to stand straight and not able to perform the most basic daily functions. After numerous bouts of rehab and pain management treatments, her doctors suggested that she try Pilates. After an initial consultation, she never looked back! She felt alive again for the first time in 2 1/2 years. "PILATES SAVED MY LIFE!" Diana was so passionate about pilates that she wanted to share it with everyone. She began her teacher training in 2013. In 2014 she started teaching classes as well as educating her clients about their bodies. Whether maintaining muscle tone and balance or rehabilitating from injury and/or surgery, Pilates can play a vital role in your overall health. Young or old; fit or injured; Pilates is for everyone!
