MEET OUR INSTRUCTORS 💫
Hi, I’m Allison — the proud owner of Serenity Now Yoga Pilates, the first Yoga-Pilates studio in Biloxi!
My wellness journey began from a very personal place. After the birth of my daughter in 2010, I was diagnosed with spondylosis in my lower spine. With two toddlers at home and surgery not an option at the time, I turned to yoga and fitness to manage my pain. In 2012, I began teaching group fitness classes and fell in love with the energy and empowerment that came with it — so much so that I invested in an Anytime Fitness location.
Years later, after exhausting other options, I underwent spinal fusion surgery in 2021. While it addressed some issues, I continued to struggle with nerve pain and chronic discomfort. Determined to heal my body without relying on medication, I explored physical therapy and discovered Reformer Pilates. The results were transformative — not just physically, but mentally and emotionally.
I couldn’t believe more people weren’t doing it, and that’s when Serenity Now was born — a space dedicated to healing, strength, and mindful movement.
Today, I know without a doubt that I was meant to teach Pilates. It has brought purpose and peace into my life, and I’m honored to share it with others. I hope you’ll join me for a class and begin your own journey to healing and strength.
As Joseph Pilates so beautifully said:
“Change happens through movement and movement heals.”
