Leading Pilates Instructors Experts

Hi! I’m Tamara, a Certified Pilates Instructor and founder of The Pilates Circuit in NYC. With 9+ years of experience, I specialize in results-driven, athletic Pilates to improve posture, core strength, and overall wellness. I built The Pilates Circuit from the ground up, starting as a solo instructor who simply wanted to train people in a smarter, more intentional way. What began as one private room and a vision quickly became a full-scale, high-performing training brand. I didn’t set out to become an entrepreneur, but when I saw how powerful private, progressive Pilates could be, I knew I had something worth building. Every stage of this business required me to think creatively, lead decisively, and protect the standard I believed in. For two years, I couldn’t hire a single instructor who met the bar I had set. That wasn’t a setback. It was a commitment. I knew the only way to create a truly effective training environment was to build a team that shared the same level of precision, care, and expertise. Today, that team is one of the strongest assets of the brand, and I’m proud to say it reflects years of intentional hiring, training, and leadership. Running a business in Manhattan requires resilience, adaptability, and a deep understanding of what people actually need when it comes to their bodies and their health. It also requires the willingness to rethink traditional models. After COVID, it became obvious that the industry was pushing group fitness harder than people truly wanted. Clients weren’t looking for noise or volume. They wanted attention, connection, and intelligent programming. Recognizing that shift guided some of the biggest decisions I made as a founder and positioned The Pilates Circuit as a leader in private Pilates training. Alongside running the business, I still coach a full roster of private clients each week. Staying on the floor keeps my perspective sharp and rooted in reality. It allows me to bridge movement science with practical, real-world application and ensures that everything we do at TPC is shaped by what actually works, not by trends. As a founder and instructor, I care about clarity, precision, and results. I believe people deserve training that aligns with their goals and empowers them to understand their bodies better. My work combines the mindset of a coach with the leadership of an entrepreneur, and I bring both to every conversation, every client, and every contribution I make as an expert.

Mehr als 30 Jahre nebenberufliche Fitnesstrainerin (Groupfitness: Step Aerobic, Pilates, Langhanteltraining, Bodystyling u.ä.) mit unzähligen Trainerausbildungen (Pilates A-Lizenz, Fitnesstrainer A-Lizenz, Ernährungsberatungs-A-Lizenz, Lauftrainer, Fachtrainerin für Rückentraining, Dance Step Instructor usw.) Hauptberuflich in der IT. 2024 wechsel weg von der IT, hauptberuflich in den Sport. Ich möchte den Menschen wirklich helfen in Bewegung zu bekommen ihre körperlichen Beschwerden zu lindern. Ich bin gefragt für Gesundheitsworkshops in Firmen, schrieb Expertenartikle für ein regionales Gesundheitsmagazin (bergisch fit) und stellte eigene Pilatesstudien auf dem internationalen Pilates research Forum vor. Außerdem bin ich Autorin meines eigenen Pilates-Online-Magazins, sowie Gastautorin zahlreicher anderer Blogs. Um Wissen noch zu vertiefen: Sportstudium (Angewandte Trainingswissenschaften) mit Schwerpunkt Prävention, Rehabilitation und Regeneration. Abschluss zum Bachelor vorauss. Frühjahr 2026. Geplant ist der Master an der SpoHo bis Ende 2028. Mit frischestem Wissen, Erfahrung mit tausenden von Klienten über die Jahre habe ich 2024 ein eigenes Pilatesstudio eröffnet. Ein reines Pilatesmattenstudio (in einer von meinem Mann und mir umgebauten Kirche) auf digital modernsten Niveau mit Hybridtraining und KI gestützen Analysen. Die Zukunft gehört denen, die die Menschen mit ihren individuellen Herausforderungen sehen und im kleinen helfen können. Deshalb geht mein Weg neben gesundheitlichem Pilates (Fokus Rückengesundheit) auch zum therapeutischen Pilates und Ganganalysen. In Zeiten sinkender Präventionsausgaben des Staates brauchen wir gute Angebote für die Menschen vor Ort. Mit meinen Onlineangeboten komme ich damit auf jedes Dorf. Heute bereits nach über einem Jahr besuchen jede Woche etwa 200 Teilnehmer meine Kurse aus ganz Deutschland, Österreich, der Schweiz, sogar aus Belgien. Auch Ende 2025 wird es wieder eine einmalige Pilatesstudie geben in der es u.a. um die öffentliche Meinungsbildung über Pilates zur Wirkung auf das körperliche Gleichgewicht geht.

I’m Gwenn, a freelance fitness-wellness writer, a level-4 ACE-certified* Personal Trainer (25 years), and a certified yoga instructor and coach in California. Physically active as a teen dancer, hotfooting it to the big fitness world was in plain sight. After certifying in personal training and group fitness, coaching in a few health clubs became master training turf for my future. Corporate fitness programs followed, which is where I found coaching elegance in the C-suite terrain. I was in two brilliant worlds of learning and teaching.  I spent off-hours creating health and fitness newsletters. These broadcasts became my perfect 24/7 digital marketing tool, and I sometimes received the best compliment for any writer: “When is the next one?”  In 2008, I opened a yoga-fitness center where I train clients in group and private sessions 4 days a week. Along with that, managing the business demands broader marketing recipes in website maintenance, landing page marketing, and more fitness newsletters, which are all self-executed responsibilities. Running a successful online fitness accessories store for 7 years enabled excellent website design training.   My creative side carries outside my center’s four walls. I write about self-improvement, personal training, exercise, and yoga, where I am at peace (and at play!). Recently published articles/contributions include Fit&Well, AskMen, Eat This Not That, and Yell Wellness. I'm ready for more. If your wellness project banks on information with integrity -- and a bit of sparkle -- I might be your gal. Shall we chat? My expertise is: - mind-body - senior yoga - group fitness - yoga instruction - mobility training - strength training - women's fitness - personal training - functional training - post-rehab training - special populations - senior fitness and longevity ________________ Websites are:  https://GwennJones.com https://AuburnYogaStudio.com Sacramento, CA, USA *ACE CPT (American Council on Exercise)
