Sydney Craig
Owner/instructor

Sydney is a fully certi­fied Pilates instruc­tor through the Pilates Method Alliance (PMA). Before finding Pilates she was a full time hair­styl­ist at Arrojo-Cutler and educator for Bumble and bumble. She appren­ticed Nick Arrojo (from TLC’s ‘What Not to Wear’) and Rodney Cutler (of Cutler Salons in NYC and Miami) for two years.

She believes that this is where she began to develop her “eye” for detail. Her journey with Pilates began in 2001 in an effort to combat back pain from years of hair­styling, a lifetime of bad posture and scol­io­sis. She was so inspired by her own improve­ments with Pilates that she dedi­cated herself to the intense instruc­tor training to become a Pilates teacher.

For her primary training, she completed the 450-hour Concen­tra­tion 101 certi­fi­ca­tion through Phys­i­cal­Mind. Since then, Sydney’s Pilates educa­tion hasn’t stopped. Her educa­tion has contin­ued with numerous hours with a variety of master instruc­tors includ­ing Kristin Steven­son of Pilates Training Insti­tute; Jennifer Gianni; first gener­a­tion Pilates teacher, Lolita San Miguel; Rebecca Leone; and Michele Larsson.

In 2010, Sydney attended 2 Stretch Therapy work­shops with Kit Laughlin. She found Stretch Therapy to be the perfect compli­ment to the Pilates Method and believes it to be the key to helping people unlock their bodies so they move and live in the most func­tional way possible.

Sydney is also the mother of two and credits her quick recovery after two preg­nan­cies and two C-sections to Pilates.

Her goal is to help everyone she works with find that strong connec­tion to their center that will help them in their life and activ­i­ties outside of the studio.
