She began teaching STOTT PILATES® in 2000 and is fully certified in all the STOTT PILATES® equipment and mat as well as Injuries and Special Populations.

Jessica Tretter is a former professional ballet dancer who has danced with Houston Ballet, BalletNext, and Rochester City Ballet. A native of Rochester, Jessica grew up studying ballet under Timothy Draper and Jamey Leverett, in addition to studying at the School of American Ballet and American Ballet Theater during the summer months. From the age of 14, Jessica has been practicing Pilates to combat growth spurts, build strength, overcome and prevent injuries, and to maintain her overall physical health. She supplemented her ballet training with reformer work, group mat classes during her summers away in New York, and worked privately with Pilates instructors during her professional career. It seemed a natural leap to become an instructor herself, so Jessica completed her Balanced Body training on all the apparatus in March of 2019. She has been teaching since the summer of 2019, working with people of all ages and sharing her love of physical motions and body mechanics. Jessica aims to make Pilates feel approachable and accessible for all ages and bodies, and to share her enjoyment of movement.

Jessica earned a degree in Dance from Mercyhurst University in 2002 and has been teaching movement ever since. She started her STOTT Pilates training while teaching at the Ballet Memphis School and completed her full certification in California. Jessica enjoys helping people learn more about their bodies through movement. She also loves spending time outside with her husband and their 3 sons.

Martha has a background in ballet and practiced Pilates for 16 years before becoming a certified instructor. She also practices yoga and gyrotonics and is a registered dietician. The regular practice of mindful exercise has kept her strong and balanced, allowing her to remain active with her ever expanding family, including her grandchildren. Her experience as a student and her own physical challenges with aging carry over in to her teaching. Her motto is “Keep the train moving."

Rachel Hewer danced professionally for Ballet Memphis for ten years. While dancing, Rachel received her Stott Pilates certification to teach Reformer and Mat. She began teaching in 2008 and became a fully certified in Cadillac, Chair, and Barrels in 2016. Rachel loves helping people gain a better understanding of how their bodies move and function. She enjoys working with all ages, encouraging clients to achieve their goals. Rachel graduated from the University of Mississippi with a degree in Education which she hopes will bring greater insight to her teaching as a Pilates Instructor.

Julie Niekrasz was certified in 2011 in cadillac, chair, barrels, reformer, and mat. She loves teaching all levels and has fun while doing it and watching her clients improve their quality of life through Pilates, movement, and even some laughter. I truly enjoy helping others.

Amanda Asbell learned about Pilates through her own back pain. She has taught healing in the form of movement through Pilates for 18 years. Her favorite Pilates exercise is the tie between scissors and the shoulder bridge. A shoulder bridge is a great way to strengthen your glutes, and the scissors exercise is a great combination of flexibility and strength.
