Instructors
Jenny Washburn, Studio Owner/Instructor
Jenny Washburn's career in teaching started as an elementary school teacher! Being an experienced teacher made the transition into teaching Pilates a smooth one. When teaching Pilates on week nights and weekends wasn't enough for Jenny, she transitioned into teaching Pilates full time. She has trained and worked with some of the best Pilates Instructors in the area. Jenny says, "I first discovered Pilates when my mom couldn't stop talking about how amazing it was. After continuously hearing about it from her, I tried a class and was hooked! I fell in love with the mind-body connection, the challenge, and the way it balances out my muscles so I can continue to age with mobility".
She earned her Pilates certification through BASI Pilates, an intense 500 hour training program. Jenny is comprehensively certified in Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Wunda Chair, Spine Corrector, F2 Chair and Ladder Barrel. One of the key aspects that sets BASI Pilates apart is its attention to individualized training. Each session is tailored to the participant's unique body, taking into account their specific strengths, weaknesses, and goals. This personalized approach ensures that individuals can progress at their own pace while receiving optimal benefits.
