Christina discovered Pilates through a former college classmate, and was instantly hooked, attending classes tow or three times a day! During this time, she formed a special bond with her home studio manager, connecting over their shared experience of losing a parent. Recognizing the strength and healing Pilates brought into Christina’s life, her manager encouraged her to pursue teacher training. As she did, Pilates became a powerful tool in helping her reconnect with herself while navigating grief and complex emotions, bringing her to a deep understanding of the body-mind connection. In her teaching, this personal experience has allowed Christina to connect with clients in a meaningful way, creating relationships that feel like a second family. Outside the studio, Christina loves traveling, spending time with her family, and immersing herself in nature. She believes, “Nature’s song is beautiful, if you take the time to ground yourself and listen.”

After an early career as a modern and classical dancer in New York City, Dani’s love for movement eventually transformed into a deep passion for Pilates, and a lifelong dedication to the practice as a classically trained instructor. Teaching in Florida for the past several years, she gained invaluable experience and deep insights, which she’s grateful to now share with the Vibe community. Combining her experience in dance with her love of Pilates, she brings exuberance and life into her classrooms, a quality one can’t help but feel when taking her classes. Beyond her dedication to Pilates, she’s also a proud step-mom!—and proud to share that her step-son is now in medical school and her step-daughter is currently training in the field of aviation.

A native of Buffalo, NY, Gregory first came to the Pilates practice in his early 20s while living in Los Angeles. Dogged by old sports injuries, Pilates proved a powerful means for healing and strengthening his body. Believing something this powerful needed to be shared with others, it wasn’t long before he decided to become a teacher. Gregory was classically certified in 2013 through the Equinox Pilates Teacher Training Institute, and in the decade-plus since has worked with teacher-mentors from several ideologies across the larger Pilates spectrum. Moving back east in 2018, he spent a year living, writing and teaching in Sag Harbor, NY, before ultimately moving to NYC—the city where, in the 1920s, an eccentric German immigrant named Joseph Hubertus Pilates opened a gym and began formally teaching his then-revolutionary methodology. Inspired by the language of Joe's original method—Contrology, as “...complete coordi-nation of body, mind and spirit”—Gregory teaches Pilates' work as a living, ever-evolving fitness philosophy, grounded in the belief that breath and movement are our best tools for achieving overall wellbeing. Having recently relocated to the Charlotte area, he is deeply grateful to now share his passion for Pilates with the Tega Cay-Fort Mill community.
