Yoni, Pilates Zone Founder & Pilates Master Teacher

Yoni first discovered Pilates in 2005 while living in Los Angeles, CA. Her love for the Pilates method inspired her to complete a 600 hour Pilates Teacher Training Certification with Teague Pilates in the Classical Pilates style. With Teague being a manufacturer of Pilates equipment, Yoni had extensive exposure to the manufacturing process which gave her a deep understanding of the components and mechanisms of Pilates equipment and apparatus, and how they interact with the human body to create the well known results of the Pilates method.

In 2010, Yoni continued to pursue her education at an internationally recognized Master Teacher Training program in Boulder, Colorado. Often referred to as the “Harvard” of Classical Pilates training, The Pilates Center curriculum emphasizes the benefits of teaching in the classical style as it was created and taught by Joseph H. Pilates, himself.

With specialized training in post-rehabilitative exercise programs, Yoni takes an interest in creating and teaching safe and fun Pilates programs for post-surgical clients; and also those with back, neck, and joint conditions; to improve their strength, flexibility, and stability. She enjoys working with individuals along a wide array athleticism and ages ranging from 4 to 95 years old. Additionally, Yoni has enjoyed her experiences training Professional Athletes in golf, soccer, surfing, basketball, hockey, and swimming, to optimize their athletic performance.

Yoni teaches with an alignment focus, seeing the body as a whole that is moved by breath. With consistent effort, commitment, and patience, Yoni believes that the Pilates practice can truly enhance your life. Outside of the studio, you can find Yoni playing with her two beautiful daughters and enjoying nature with her family.
