Hi there, I am Christl Marcontell and I have spent decades mastering the techniques, philosophy and skills of classical Pilates through the lineage of Romana Kryzanowska and Jay Grimes.
I don’t believe that Pilates teacher training should be one-size-fits-all. I offer professional teacher coaching in classical Pilates that is responsive to how you move and think, and respectful to your prior training and values.
Working together you can:
Gain clarity and purpose in your personal connection to what you teach.
Reignite your passion for teaching with insight into the purpose and connections of the Pilates exercises as a holistic system instead of separate “moves”.
Prepare your body for training and teaching with challenges specific to the needs of professional Pilates teachers or apprentices.

I am a 2nd generation Pilates teacher certified by Romana Kryzanowska in 1999.
I bring decades of experience working with clients from all walks of life, from therapeutic needs, through pregnancy and post-partum recovery, to competitive athletes looking for their edge, to apprentices and professional teachers.
I also draw from my background in somatic movement and MELT method to find blocked energy and inefficient movement patterns that might be holding you back, and using specific verbal and hands-on cuing I help you experience the classical Pilates system so it feel natural and energizing in your own body, as well as gaining more self-awareness and confidence in your how you teach.
This is ideal for professional Pilates teachers whether from a contemporary or classical background. It is also great for people considering certification in classical Pilates with any school— Before you commit to an expensive and intensive training, the more you know the better your training experience will be.
