Root to Rise Pilates

Hi! I’m Erin Polbos, and I’m so excited to be part of the Root to Rise Pilates community. I’m currently training to become a certified Pilates instructor through Balanced Body, and it’s been such a rewarding experience to deepen my understanding of this incredible practice.I grew up in New Jersey where I was a competitive cheerleader and swimmer for many years, and I’ve always loved movement in all forms. My background is in public health, and I also hold an MBA with a focus in healthcare administration. I’ve always been passionate about health and wellness, but Pilates has become a deeply personal part of my journey. It began as a way to reconnect with my body during a time of transition, and over the years, it has evolved into a grounding practice that brings me strength, breath, and clarity. I truly believe that Pilates builds not only a stronger body, but also a more resilient and centered mind. One of the most rewarding parts of my journey has been watching Pilates help others, including my mom, who now swears by her reformer sessions post-spinal fusion surgery. I’m so excited to share my passion with you and help you feel stronger, more balanced, and more at home in your body. My goal as an instructor is to help you feel empowered, present, and curious in your movement.  Whether you're brand new to Pilates or returning after time away, I’m here to meet you where you are and help you build from there, with patience, intention, and a little joy along the way.
