SENTIRSI STUDIO - Key Persons
Bryanna is a lifelong competitive athlete most recently playing soccer on the collegiate and semi-pro level. She discovered Pilates while rehabilitating a serious ankle injury. Her love of the practice blossomed allowing her to successfully return to her sport while at the same time becoming a certified Pilates instructor on the complete equipment repertoire. Her clients find her passion for Pilates contagious. When Bryanna's not in the studio you'll find her on the soccer field (of course) or in her art space creating pottery.
Elaina is a creator and moved from Northeast FL. Her passion for movement began at a very early age and molded her to who she is today. She's a BFA Dance graduate from Rutgers University, where she studied contemporary and compositional forms. She's found Pilates not only strengthens her creative movement but helps reconnect her with her mind in a unique way - different than any other form of training. Elaina's teaching approach to Pilates comes from her experience working in a physical therapy rehabilitation setting and her previous instructing in group fitness. During her sessions you'll experience moments of heat relating to athleticism, balance and control, followed by stretching and mindful breathing to restore the nervous system to feel strong and clear within the mind and body. In addition to teaching, Elaina is part of NewBrese, NYC based dance collective, where she works as the Assistant Choreographer. She also enjoys rock climbing, gardening, and playing with her kitty.
Jennie is a long-time Sentirsi client turned team member. She greets our clients with a smile and is always happy to assist with scheduling and all customer service needs. She is an integral part of our team to deliver the best quality experience. Jennie is a NJ native and resides locally with her husband and two children. Outside of the studio she enjoys swimming and boating and is an active volunteer with her church and Girl Scouts.
Sarah is from Richmond VA and is pursuing a BFA Dance degree at Rutgers University. She received her Pilates teacher certification from the Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training Program at Rutgers under the direction of Frederick Curry. She is excited to partner her dance background with her Pilates training to create full and rewarding movement experiences for people of all ages and skill levels.
My passion for health and wellness began early caring for patients and working along side surgeons. I wanted to help patients before, during, and after medical care to improve their daily living activities (ADL) through functional, intelligent exercise. My training within the Pilates Method, coupled with my medical background, enables me to understand, empathize, and design the optimal program for each client. The Pilates method is truly a genius, continuously evolving repertoire, that allows me to teach to my clients that best suits their needs. I am passionate about educating fellow fitness professionals to continue their growth and advancement in the Pilates field.
