Hi, I’m Susan. It’s nice to meet you.

As a 40-year veteran of the health and wellness industry, I have many years of experience as a fitness educator and life coach.

After my son was born in 2002, I found Pilates in NYC through β€œSTOTT” Pilates, now Merrithew Fitness. 5 years later I launched Pivotal Pilates Fitness and Wellness, a 2,800 square foot facility dedicated to both general and special populations. It grew into a highly-successful Pilates studio in New Jersey, which offered a variety of classes and specialized fitness instruction.

Over the last 2 decades, In pursuit of more knowledge and expertise, I took 2 more comprehensive Pilates certifications, (PMA and The Kane School), in addition to a plethora of advanced studies with anatomists, PT’s, surgeons and other specialists who helped me understand movement and biomechanics in a much deeper way.

In 2021, I realized it was time to widen my horizons and teach new Pilates teachers and clients. I sold my Pilates studio and dedicated myself fully to this new chapter. I am now a Master Trainer with Club Pilates ushering in a new generation of Pilates instructors.

I will always be proud of the reputation I built as a rehabilitation specialist and educator but even more excited to share what I know to new and upcoming teachers.

My certifications:

My values:

Being authentic is a priority for me. I like being the β€œreal deal”.

Going deep into any subject brings clarity and confidence.

Merging the image of who we think we can be, and the person we are, is a journey worth taking.

Any incremental effort today is one step toward a healthier life. Change happens incrementally

My superpower:

Helping instructors become clearer and confident through developing their Pilates eye.

I have almost 40 years and thousands of hours of experience coaching people to change their lives and grow their practice.

Now it’s your turn.
