I took my first Hot Pilates class in January 2017, and just one month later, we added it to Bend Beyond’s schedule — and never looked back! I knew instantly this was the missing ingredient, not just for me, but for our community to feel their absolute best inside and out.

Hot Pilates checked every box as the perfect complement to an Original Hot Yoga practice. The HIIT format, combined with low-impact exercises, makes the class accessible yet challenging — just like OHY. The focus on Pilates principles, especially core engagement, builds essential stabilizer muscles that support and enhance not only our yoga practice, but also all the other activities we Bozemanites love!

But above all, I fell in love with how I felt after class — strong, energized, and empowered. My body felt alive, my mind confident, and my spirit motivated to step into the day as my best self. That transformation when amplified by the incredible group energy of these classes creates magic!

And here’s the thing: that magic isn’t just for students. Teaching Hot Pilates carries that same rush of energy, connection, and inspiration. It’s more than a workout; it’s a class for your body, mind, and spirit — and leading it is an incredible privilege!

As a teacher, I’ve witnessed how life-changing Hot Pilates can be for so many people. Thousands of students have walked through our doors and left feeling stronger, lighter, and more vibrant. There’s nothing quite like the post-class “glow” — except maybe the feeling you get after teaching one!

Over the past 10+ years, I’ve had the joy of mentoring many teachers, guiding them as they take bold steps in their own practice and careers. Offering our first Bend Beyond Hot HIIT Pilates Teacher Training is a dream come true, and I’m honored to take these first steps with you as you discover the magic of teaching for yourself.
