Shelby Weigand
Owner, Certified Pilates Instructor, Doctorate of Physical Therapy

Shelby first found Pilates in 2009 while working at a Pilates-based Physical Therapy clinic. She immediately loved not only how Pilates made her feel, but also how it made the patients’ feel. After suffering from chronic back pain due to scoliosis, Shelby witnessed first hand how effective Pilates was in improving mobility and getting back to pain-free activity. She became inspired to share her experiences with others. After finishing her Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2013, Shelby went on to get her Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training. She finished her certification and became a Certified Pilates Instructor in 2017. Since completing her certification, Shelby has transitioned out of the Physical Therapy clinic and has dedicated more of her time to Pilates practice.

 

Janie Zuber
Certified Pilates Mat Instructor

Janie discovered Pilates in 2018 when she tried a free introductory session at her local gym in New Jersey.  As someone who had spent the first 40 years of her life afraid to move, Janie was fascinated by the Pilates approach to physical fitness, which not only challenged her body but also stimulated her mind.  She found that the structure of Pilates exercises suited her so well that she could finally enjoy moving her body and she became confident enough to show up to any and every new Pilates class she could find.  Janie has a special interest in translating her Pilates practice to achieving better form and stability when riding horses and doing ballet.  After a few years of Pilates practice, she decided to pursue more formal Pilates training and started her Pilates Mat certification with Power Pilates in 2021.  She is currently certified as a Beginner Mat Teacher and is also continuing her education to earn comprehensive Pilates certification.  Janie is a pediatrician, a military veteran, a pianist, and a once-city-girl-now-transplant-Texan who loves living out in the country and spends her free time training her five rescue dogs.

Shelby Shields
Pilates Instructor

Shelby first found Pilates in 2018 when a friend invited her to a group reformer class. Her youngest daughter had just turned one, and she was looking for a fitness routine that would inspire her. Pilates not only helped her get back in shape, it helped her overall health, general awareness, strength, and mobility. It was a perfect fit. She loves that Pilates is truly for EVERY body at ANY stage of life.

In 2022, Shelby completed the Polestar Pilates Mat and Comprehensive Pilates Teacher Training Program. She is excited to continue her education to grow her own personal practice as well as her clients’. Helping clients find success and “AH-HA” moments is what she loves moves about teaching.

When she is not at the studio, Shelby enjoys time with friends, tacos, a nice glass of wine, traveling, and spending time with her husband and two daughters!
