ELLE
OWNER & FOUNDER

Elle is the founder of Pilates on Seventh. She was first introduced to Pilates as a dancer in high school, where she noticed that it was the only form of exercise that helped her to safely strengthen her hyper-mobile joints. Later, when she was diagnosed with a connective tissue disorder she found that Pilates equipped her with an acute awareness of her body, helping her not only stabilize her condition, but improve her muscle strength, attitude, and overall health. Her life changing experience with the Pilates Method led her to seek a teaching degree so that she could share the benefits with others.  Elle received her mat Pilates training at the world-renowned Equinox Teacher Training Institute in LA. She went on to complete a year long comprehensive training course at Vitality Pilates in Seattle where she taught before opening her own studio, Pilates in Seventh.
