Meet Julia

My Pilates journey began following a knee injury while running a marathon. I sought an alternative that would offer a full body workout. After taking mat Pilates at a local rec center for a couple of years I transitioned to a studio and equipment classes. I’ve never looked back.  

My instructor saw something in me, which led to becoming a Peak Pilates instructor and now a Master Instructor and Mentor. I’m proud of the fact that BE2 Pilates is an Education Center and I’m able to offer scholarships to students otherwise unable to begin the certification process.  

My hope when you enter the studio is you feel welcomed, unjudged, calm, and feel the sense of community I’ve worked to create.

Our experienced Pilates Instructors always strive to offer the highest quality, personalized instruction to all clients. We are also proud to be a Peak Pilates® Education Center, providing the finest Pilates education to rising and current Instructors.

Christine was drawn to how Pilates challenged both her body and mind. Over the years, she has maintained a consistent practice, appreciating the
adaptability of Pilates to meet the body’s needs. In 2018, she earned her Comprehensive Peak Pilates Certification. She brings a thoughtful, personalized approach to her teaching, helping clients connect with their bodies and build strength, flexibility, and resilience.

Cathleen first discovered Pilates as a training supplement to her ballet career. Pilates helped heal her body, and she noticed her dancing and overall strength excelled. During her dance career she pursued a Peak Pilates Instructor Comprehensive Certification, and has been teaching since 2017. Outside the studio, she enjoys time her family, indulging in delicious food, reading, and getting away to the beach whenever possible. 


Originally from Texas, it was a close friend and fellow group fitness instructor who encouraged Shannon to become a Pilates instructor. She appreciates that Pilates is a total body workout. She has seen improvements in posture and flexibility for herself and her clients, and knows the benefits of Pilates as a stand-alone program or as a compliment to existing fitness routine. When she's not in the studio, she spends time with family and friends and enjoys walks on the Florida beaches.

Jeanie is a Peak Pilates Comprehensive Certified Instructor. With a deep passion for helping clients push their physical limits while cultivating mental strength, she is dedicated to guiding individuals through transformative movement experiences. Her teaching emphasizes precision, control, and mindful engagement. She encourages clients to challenge their bodies and empower their minds through the classical Pilates method. 

Caiti

Caiti is a comprehensively certified Pilates instructor with over 10 years of practice and a former dancer. She discovered Pilates as a way to prevent injuries and cross-train while dancing, and it quickly became a passion. Caiti loves traveling and exploring new places whenever she can— even better if she can find a Pilates class along the way to connect with the global Pilates community or experience new ways of practicing.

Izzy

Izzy is a passionate Pilates instructor with a lifelong love for sports and fitness. From playing soccer and softball to practicing Jiu Jitsu and yoga, Izzy has always been drawn to movement and the power of the body. With a relaxed and fun approach, Izzy encourages clients to enjoy the process of getting stronger and fostering a mind-body connection.


Kelly

Kelley is a passionate Pilates instructor with a strong background in yoga (E-RYT® 500), barre, and group fitness. Her classes are full of energy, intention, and movement that inspires. When she’s not teaching, you’ll find her on the go—cheering at her daughters’ dance competitions and soccer games, always balancing her love for wellness with the joy of being a proud wife and mom.


Michelle

As a Dental Hygienist and Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist, Michelle has always been interested in overall health and wellness, and the way a “problem” or dysfunction in one part of the body can manifest in other areas. She turned to Pilates to address work-related stresses and strains in her own body. The relief she felt and her instructor’s enthusiasm for classical Pilates led Michelle to pursue her Comprehensive Certification.

What our clients are saying...

I found the Fountain of Youth and it's at BE2 Pilates! My husband and I both agree that Pilates has changed our lives! We’re both in our early 60’s and when we look around at our friends, we see them suffering from joint issues, lack of flexibility, and poor posture. Meanwhile, people marvel at us because we seem to “never age!” BE2 Pilates has the area’s top-notch instructors, who tailor YOUR program to YOUR body! BE2 Pilates meets all of our needs, and we look forward to (not) growing old with them! 
—Pam M.

BE2 Pilates is a fabulous Pilates studio. The instructors are top-notch, the studio's equipment is in perfect condition, the studio is spotlessly clean, and the equipment class is challenging as well as interesting. I highly recommend. 
—Ellen H.

I have been coming to BE2 Pilates and its predecessor companies for over 10 years. I have always thought highly of the instructors and flexible programs that are tailored to my needs, but taking 14 months off during Covid drove home its importance to my health and the state of my body. While away from Pilates, my conditioning, strength, flexibility, and balance deteriorated, and even now, almost a year later, I continue to see improvement. My 3 times a week pilates is the most important thing I can do for my health.
—Richard N.

Great instructors and very welcoming to everyone. You will never be made to feel as if you don’t belong. You need to give this studio and Pilates a try if you haven’t already!
—Michelle G.

Great session today with Julia Hughes. All of the instructors are very knowledgeable and teach/instruct you and your body. I encourage everyone to experience Pilates at BE2 Pilates.
—Mary Clare F.

After my first session with Julia, I've already felt taller, and my posture is better. My lower back is not as tight from scoliosis every day. 
—Marta P.

BE2 Pilates is a wonderful place for exercise and refreshing your spirit! The studio is beautiful and friendly; the staff is supportive and knowledgeable. Be sure to sign up for a class or a private session! 
—Laurie R.

I have been with this class for over 5+ years. I love the environment and feel confident about all the instructors. I have fun while doing Pilates and really like (or, I should say, love) my instructor. I also, enjoy the company of other fellow members in my class. I would recommend this Pilates location to everyone who can or is able to join. 
—Geeta R.
