Instructor Trainer
Owner of Elements In Motion, VERED ARBEL's fitness and business career stemmed from a background in dance. Her career shifted to teaching as she became a certified instructor trainer and choreographer, formed her own dance company and toured throughout Europe. As a dancer, Pilates was the exercise of choice to keep flexible and prevent injuries. In 1991, she began a full certification program for STOTT PILATES. In 2000, she opened her own Pilates studio and STOTT PILATES training center, where she teaches Pilates to clients as well as students wishing to become instructors. Working closely with rehabilitation centers she has implemented courses to benefit various sports participants such as golf and running. In addition to the studio, she is pursuing a degree in exercise science and lecturing off site for workshops and courses.

The Studio

Our 3,000 sq ft, two-level, exposed brick loft-style facility is fully equipped with STOTT PILATES equipment. Our mission is to help our clients increase body awareness, eliminate muscle imbalance, and gain a greater range of motion and flexibility, while also challenging the mind. Our instructors bring collective expertise from various professional backgrounds such as dance, physical therapy and fitness to help us serve a wide range of clients' needs. We offer specialized programs for rehabilitation clients, pre-and post-natal clients, and others seeking sport-specific strengthening and training.

NOTE REGARDING EXAMS
You are not obliged to write (and pay for) two exams if you are planning to take both courses. You may choose to wait until completion of the second course to write your exam (a combined Matwork and Reformer exam). If you prefer to pause between courses, you may choose to take an exam to become certified in Matwork only, and another exam (a combined Matwork and Reformer exam) after completing the second course to become certified in Reformer work. In this case two exam fees would apply.
