About Mary

A life-long workout fanatic, Mary was searching for a way to make health and wellness a larger part of her life. One private Pilates lesson several years ago proved to be the answer in fulfilling this dream. After spending years in the worlds of publishing and interior design, Mary changed her career path and began the rigorous Pilates Certification process. Now a renowned instructor and the owner of Breedlove Pilates, Mary has realized her dream.

Mary's philosophy is quality over quantity, as she believes the true benefit of Pilates is discovered through tailoring the work for each unique and individual body she sees. Mary is known for providing her clients with a variety of challenges, while keeping it fun and interesting; ultimately ensuring that students leave each session feeling better than they did upon walking in the door. For Mary, seeing changes in students’s posture, physique and health in general, is gratifying beyond words. Learn more at www.breedlovepilates.com.
