Alyssa started taking mat pilates as a way of cross-training for her dance career back in high school. She fell in love with the technique, and began developing a deep body awareness and muscular efficiency that has carried her through a strong, safe, and pain-free dance career. She felt the benefits personally and also saw that her dance students were improving rapidly as she started applying her pilates understanding to their training. From there, she decided to become a certified pilates instructor, allowing her to dive deeper into growing her knowledge and expanding the population of people that she works with! 💃🏻

If you’ve taken class with Alyssa, you may know that she loves anything that works the GLUTES and believes that strong, supportive glutes can change the world. As a teacher, Alyssa is always looking at form and loves to help clients find deeper work through their proper technique. Her class motto is - business in the front (abs) and party in the back (glutes). After taking a pilates class she always feels accomplished, proud, and energized — she hopes to create a class environment where her clients walk out feeling the same! 💥

In her free time Alyssa loves to cook, watch reality tv, listen to podcasts, and hang out with her cat. Self care to Alyssa is catching up with friends, a walk by the lake, trying new healthy recipes, or teaching herself a great workout. She is obsessed with music and loves a good playlist to get through workouts. Lately it has been the Renaissance album by Beyonce! Her next goal is to find new ways of moving her body - taking new dance classes, trying weight lifting etc! She also wants to present some choreography in Chicago so stay tuned as we see Alyssa outside of @restorepilateschicago and on the big stage!
