about dana
Dana has been teaching movement and dance for 15 years. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1994 from Webster University in St. Louis and a Master of Fine Arts in Dance at the University of Arizona in Tucson.
Dana began taking Pilates classes in Salt Lake City and was instantly hooked! She received her certification through the world-renowned Pilates Center in Boulder, Colorado. She is a member of the Pilates Method Alliance and is currently teaching at her private studio in Kirkland Washington.
Dana’s approach to teaching is practical, hands on, extremely detailed, incredibly hearted, and accompanied with a bit of humor to keep it light! Dana is passionate about sharing Pilates and strives to teach concepts as opposed to just teaching exercises. She inspires her clients to take what they learn in their sessions and apply it to their every day lives.
When she is not teaching Pilates you can find her in the mountains hiking, biking or skiing with her son and her husband.
