Jody Pettle

Instructor

Simply Balanced

Jody discovered Pilates as a dancer in 1997 and fell in love with the precision, physicality and fluidity of the practice. Already a dance teacher, she knew Pilates would be another way she could guide others through the joy of mindful movement. In 1999 Jody received her Pilates certification, and since then she has had the opportunity to train under Ron Fletcher, Kathy Corey, Jennifer Stacey and Liz Roman.As a teacher, Jody uses a hands on approach as well as verbal & visual cues to guide her clients through their practice. With movement and breathe she enjoys helping others find freedom in their bodies.In addition to her Pilates training, in 2005 Jody graduated from the Tante Marie pastry program. Much like Pilates, she enjoys using the same aspects of precision and creativity to bake for others.Outside of Pilates and the kitchen you can find Jody carpooling her 3 kids to various activities, seated at her dining room table helping with homework or enthusiastically cheering on the sidelines at one of her children’s soccer games.
