From the first day I walked into Quantum Pilates, Mark and Lana have been amazing. Lana pushes me to improve every session and has given me the confidence to continue to improve. They have helped me get control of extreme back pain while becoming more flexible and healthy. I would recommend them to anyone looking to begin the journey who is hesitant to start; these are the people you need to get your body and your mind to where you want to be—as they have for me.
Erin became a certified level Pilates Instructor in July 2007
through Jen Campbell's Articulate Eye Pilates teacher training
program at the American Dance Institute. Erin is also a certified
level practitioner of GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® and has studied
to teach with the method's creator, Juliu Horvath and Master
Trainers, Hsiao-Fang Lee and Tracy Monaco. Erin first discovered
Pilates in a dance class at Penn State University while pursuing
her degree in Arts Administration. She then encountered Pilates
again while working at the American Dance Institute in Rockville,
MD and began her intense practice of the Pilates method. Erin's
love for the Pilates method grew from the unique body awareness and
deep strength it cultivated within her. Every movement, even simply
walking up stairs, became a new and more powerful experience. Her
discovery of the liberating movements of GYROTONIC® and
GYROKINESIS® reminds her of what it felt like to swim or dance as a
child. Erin’s goal for each lesson is to empower her clients with
insight that improves how they move and feel outside the studio.
She approaches time with her clients with an appreciation for how
Pilates and the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® can be modified to
provide beneficial results for any age or ability, from young
ballerinas and athletes to inspiring people in their 90's. Her
clients often comment on her attention to detail and her gentle but
challenging teaching style.
