Hi, my name is Alena and I am both an instructor and client of Move Studio. I'm mom of two hockey players who keep me busy outside the studio.

I was born in Czech Republic and I have a background as a gymnast. I'm an active person and will try and do any type of sport.

After my snowboarding injury, I was on the long road of recovery and had to stay away from many activities; my physical therapist recommended Pilates.

Through a friend I met Emily, the owner of Move Studio; she is an amazing and inspirational person. From there, my life was changed. Not only did I find amazing people in the studio, but I was able to get stronger and kept moving and doing stuff I like, pain free.

I fell in love with Pilates and this place; this is why I decided to become an instructor. I can help other people to become stronger and happy in their life. I love this journey and all the roads it has taken me so far.
