Meagan is a Chicagoland native and has lived in the city since 2014. While dealing with her own disc herniation and sciatica pain, a physical therapist recommended Pilates to assist in recovery and healing.

 

Meagan loved the fun and challenging workout and relief from back pain. She taught middle school for ten years and coached a variety of sports (swimming, water polo, track and field, cheer & poms) to students elementary through high school.

 

Becoming a Pilates instructor merged her love of teaching and sharing the benefits of Pilates with others. While not teaching, she is hanging out with her cattle dog Cowboy, doing nail art, or dancing.

Meagan completed her mat and reformer certifications through Balanced Body.
