Gayle Lehman
Gayle’s first experience with the Pilates Method of Movement was eleven years ago, at one of the first Pilates studio’s in the Greater Cincinnati area.
She really enjoyed her first experience but being a busy, young mother, she didn’t begin practicing Pilates on a more regular basis until the spring of 2004
taking two to three Pilates classes per week while working on all the different Pilates equipment. During the summer of 2005 she decided to further her
study of Pilates by enrolling in the teacher training program at Pendleton Pilates. Gayle received her mat and reformer training from Pendleton Pilates
in December 2005.
Angela Melzer
Pilates has helped me realize a body awareness that I did not know existed within myself. I want to share this positive experience with others. Teaching and sharing this
mindful and intentional practice and helping others understand their bodies and find out what they are capable of achieving is truly my enthusiasm. It is exciting
to share with others a wonderful means of strengthening muscles while increasing flexibility and best of all - a completely enjoyable full body workout. Angela
completed her teacher training from Pendleton Pilates Teacher Training program summer of 2006.
