Our Instructors
Meet Olivia
I have been a personal trainer for over 6 years. My love for exercise and overall health started in high school where I did cheer and dance. After moving to New York City at 18 I made my way back to Naples, FL. I dove headfirst into the exercise and health industry. I studied as a NASM Personal trainer and later got my NASM Nutrition Coach Certification, TRX Suspension Training, and Balanced Body Reformer/ Movement Principles Training.
My love for Pilates began after a freak injury where I fell down the stairs and suffered high grade ligament tears surrounding my ankle. After being in a cast with a boot for almost 3 months, I had to change the way I moved my body. I shifted away from heavy lifting and went into Pilates. Not only did I improve my strength and flexibility, I enhanced my mental awareness with my body and how it feels...mindful movement. After seeing how beneficial Pilates was for myself I knew I needed to help others around me to see the benefits it can do for themselves

Caitlin has been dancing for over 15 years and has trained in many styles including ballet, jazz, burlesque, and contemporary. She discovered her love of Pilates early on and made it a regular part of her dance training. She quickly saw the positive impact Pilates had on her body and knew she wanted to get certified one day to share the benefits of Pilates with others. After graduating summa cum laude from Florida State University, she danced professionally with Savannah Ballet Theatre from 2018-2020. Shortly after, she moved back to Naples and received her Pilates training through Balanced Body. She continues to teach and perform with Naples Ballet and other local studios.
