Jena - 

Jena has over twenty-five years of dedicated classical ballet training & a decade of experience as a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant. She brings a unique perspective to pilates; blending her deep understanding of movement, with a strong foundation in anatomy & rehabilitation.

Jena is dedicated to helping clients build strength, flexibility, and balance while honoring each individual’s unique needs.

She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Dance & was introduced to pilates before college as a way to develop the strength & control essential for ballet. This early integration of pilates into her training, along with her career as a professional contemporary ballet dancer, has given her a unique perspective on body awareness, injury prevention, & functional movement. Jena continues to cherish her love for dance, performing with a local Philadelphia ballet company.

She is currently certified in Mat pilates & furthering her education in Reformer & Cadillac training.

Beyond her professional life, she is a proud mother of two beautiful children, ages 5 & 6, who loves spending time with her family.

When she's not teaching or dancing, Jena enjoys cooking & baking for fun, especially experimenting with new recipes that are both healthy & delicious for her family.
