Liz is a Pilates and movement instructor who can help with pain and tightness as well as gaining overall strength, balance and coordination in the body.

Liz graduated from Michigan State University with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology in May of 2000. She has worked in the Fitness industry as a Personal Trainer and a TRX group instructor at both East Bank Club and MIDTOWN Athletic Club. Following a running injury in 2003, Liz began Pilates and discovered how valuable it was. She completed the comprehensive apparatus STOTT Pilates certification in 2005 and launched the first MIDTOWN Pilates program. She worked eight years as the Midtown Pilates Director before transitioning into a small studio environment in 2013 at oneBody Studio in Lincoln Park.

Working at oneBody was a total emersion experience into the Pilates world. Liz was able to expand her knowledge base and study more of the Pilates method and traditions on the classical side. It was at oneBody studio where the enjoyment and passion for teaching private and small group sessions was discovered. Making a difference and really getting to know the client became the driving force to how each session was approached.

In August of 2021, Maple Tree Pilates opened at Rockwell on the River as a studio for private and semi-private sessions.

It truly is a private studio with each session devoted to Liz teaching you. The studio is a great space to feel as your own true private space. With minimal interruptions and outside conversations, the student is equipped with 2 reformers, 1 Pilates trap table, 2 towers and a Pilates Chair.
