Gisela Perez

Hi! My name is Gisela Pérez. I have been teaching Pilates since 2015.  I am a PMA (Pilates Method Alliance) certified teacher and completed a 620 teacher training program through PIlates Chicago.  I have also completed several continuing education courses such as Pilates for Neurological Conditions and Pre/Post Natal Pilates through the Center for Women's Fitness.  I have experience working with clients that have scoliosis, shoulder and knee injuries, pre and post surgery, pre and post natal as well marathoners and athletes.  I am passionate about the work that I do and love to see my clients succeed in their goals.  

My own journey began just over 15 years ago after the birth of my second child.  It took me a few years to fully appreciate what Pilates has to offer and now I am fortunate to be able to share this passion with others.  I also teach full time at Studio 8 Pilates in North Center and live right here in the West Ridge neighborhood with my husband and 4 children.
