Meet Jenn, the founder
Decades of experience as a dancer and performer. Jenn's aerial journey began with a pre-professional aerial and contemporary dance company at the University of Georgia, continued through years performing in Georgia, and deepened in Austin training with the renowned Blue Lapis Light.
Her Pilates practice was born from a personal journey of healing after a severe low-back injury. Through reformer and mat work, Jenn discovered the transformative power of movement to build strength, stability, and resilience. To her, the concept of Aer Pilates fuses the two movement disciplines that have taken her to corners of the world to share.
Education + Pilates journey
Jenn completed her Pilates reformer and equipment certification in London with the world-renowned Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI), where she absorbed the latest clinical movement knowledge for rehabilitating clients in pain. She has taught in Melbourne, Australia, and worked in a clinic on Hampstead Heath in London with her original APPI educators.
Years of working with women through pre/postpartum and peri/post-menopause transitions led her to formalize that knowledge with APPI's Women's Health Certificate. Her hunger for a deeper, evidence-based understanding of the body led her to complete her MSc in Sports Therapy at London Metropolitan University in 2024.
