Jill received her BA and MA Education at NYU. She began studying Pilates in 1998 with teacher trainer, Simona Cipriani and went on to receive her certification in 2001 from Authentic Pilates. Jill was part of the last class personally supervised by Master Teacher Romana Kryzanowska in New York.  She studied extensively with Romana's daughter, Sari Pace and with Master teachers and her mentors Ton Voogt and and Michael Fritz. Jill believes that the Pilates method can and DOES change bodies through the mind body connection. She uses positive reinforcement, humor and creativity in her teaching to help her clients connect to the exercises, move more deeply and get better results.  Her goal is for clients to look forward to coming to class and to leave the studio feeling connected, challenged and stronger.
