Hi, I’m Angelie Melzer and I train Pilates Instructors just like you on the exact methods needed to reach a new level in Pilates instruction.

I've spent years investing the time and hands on experience with specialty clients and I’m excited to share my tried and true techniques with you!
“A few well-designed movements, properly performed in a balanced sequence, are worth hours of sloppy calisthenics or forced contortion.”
