Meet Anna ✨ Studio Manager & Instructor

"Sometimes you just need an Anna class." - Literally everyone

Warm & welcoming yet full of s***k, Anna is a Reno native and lives here with her husband and two cats. She first discovered Pilates at UNR, and it was love at first class! After 9 years of personal practice, in 2021 she began her Pilates instructor training journey right here at Purely Pilates and has been teaching here ever since!

Anna believes that movement is crucial for not only physical health but also mental. She loves being able to teach people a practice that can improve their lives by getting them to a place where they can connect with their body and mind. Anna encourages that there is so much power in the basics of Pilates and that building that foundation is so important before trying all those crazy moves you see on social media! Seeing her clients gain confidence in themselves is one of her favorite things. Her style of teaching will leave you feeling oh so refreshed and relaxed. 🧖

Get to know Anna:

🧀 It's hard for her to pick a favorite food! But the overall winner is Cheese!! All types of cheese. The cheesier the better.

🎮 For fun, she loves spending time with her family and two cats, going to concerts, playing video games and Burning Man!

🦜 Birds are the top of her list of animals to watch! So much so that she just participated in the Bird-a-thon! But her all time favorite animal is a Cat 🐈 ❤️
