The story
About Laura
★ 120 five-star reviewsLaura (they/them) came to Pilates to recover mind and body from long hours of mural and interior painting, a small act of self-care that grew into a lifestyle. A passionate advocate for inclusivity and the queer community, they teach with motivating tenderness, guiding everyone with joy and dignity, especially anyone who’s ever felt excluded by fitness.
Teaching style
Lighthearted, joyful, and focused on form. Rooted in classical Pilates concepts to help you get the most out of your class.
Favorite exercise
Impossible to choose just one, but teaser on the long box always leaves me feeling strong and centered
Fun fact
A working muralist and painter, Laura runs a small business across the city and has even painted for The Studio.

Client Reviews
120 five-star ★“Great class. Laura is excellent!”
“PHEW what a good class! Laura brings such positive energy to each class and I love getting to try new exercises that will prepare us for higher level class!”
“I absolutely loved every minute of class! It was my first time and I will definitely be back.”
“Just wanted to say that Laura and PFQB are one of the many reasons that I love The Studio!! The fitness space can be so intimidating for those of us who occupy bodies that are “different” and it truly means so much to me that The Studio and Laura offer these classes every month. Even though at this point I feel very safe practicing at The Studio around any of the instructors, offering this space for the queer community is such a beautiful thing and I hope these classes will continue. I really look forward to getting to spend this hour with folks who are just a little bit more like me every month. Outside of the fabulous message offering these classes sends, Laura is a terrific instructor! They make a fun environment to practice, their cues are so easy to understand, and I feel like they always cue moves that are new (and challenging!) to me, even as I approach my 60th class. Their playlists rock my grippy socks too!”
“Laura didn’t even do their knee stretches today #missedthat #(k)needthat.”
“Fun and challenging!”
“Thanks, Laura.”
“Best instructor ever! Laura is so welcoming and clear with their cues & language. 10/10 class every time!”
“Laura is great! They always bring a challenge while thoroughly explaining moves and offering modification for those who are still trying to bridge between levels.”
