Ann Donohue

My teaching career began in 2001 as a young professional dancer in NYC with a wild scoliosis, several overuse injuries, and a dream!

I had the great fortune of falling into the care and tutelage of some of the best Pilates Teachers in the world. I’m what is considered a third generation teacher, having learned the system of Pilates from teachers that were mentored by Joseph Pilates’s protege:

Joe >>> Romana >>> My teachers >>> me

In every Classical Pilates session, we work on MULTIPLE pieces of apparatus: the Cadillac, Reformer, Ladder Barrel, Spine Corrector, Small Barrels, Wunda Chair, and more. I will also prescribe homework for you to do on the Mat. This practice meets you where you are: your session can be anywhere between therapeutic to a full blown sweat fest. Working within the progressive systems allows for this. Through consistent practice and mindful repetition, we develop agency over the constant pull of gravity.

I look forward to working with you!
