As a STOTT PILATES® Certified Instructor with advanced Merrithew workshop training, I offer specialty programming you won’t find in a standard group class. Each of these focuses is available in private and semi-private sessions at Awaken St. George in St. George, Utah.
Pickleball Performance Training
Built on Merrithew’s Pickleball Performance Training workshop on the V2 Max Plus™ Reformer, this specialty conditioning targets exactly what pickleball players need: rotational power, quick lateral movement, shoulder stability, and core strength. Whether you’re chasing tournaments or just want to stay sharp and pain-free on the court, this training keeps you agile and injury-resilient.
Athletic Conditioning on the Reformer
My Level 3 Merrithew training in athletic conditioning on the reformer brings sport-specific strength, power, and endurance work to the Pilates studio. Expect dynamic, challenging sequences that build the kind of functional strength that carries over to every activity you love — from hiking the red rocks to chasing grandkids.
Reformer Workout for Men
Pilates isn’t just for women — and this specialty workout proves it. Drawing on Merrithew’s Reformer Workout for Men programming, these sessions are designed with men’s strength, mobility, and performance goals in mind: serious core work, upper-body strength, hip mobility, and flexibility on the reformer.
Mini Foam Roller™ Flow
Using the Mini Foam Roller™, this flowing workout adds instability, balance challenges, and myofascial release to classic Pilates movement. It’s a fantastic complement to reformer training — wonderful for posture, body awareness, and recovery days.
Reformer & Padded Platform Extender
The Padded Platform Extender opens up a whole new range of exercises on the reformer, expanding your movement options for strength, stretch, and stability work. These sessions keep your practice fresh, varied, and endlessly challenging.
