Frances A. De Gori - Pitman, New Jersey
I came to Pilates through teaching Hatha Yoga.  My supervisor from Bally’s suggested I get certified through Elizabeth Larkam’s Pilates Evolved Level’s 1 through 7 (a joint venture between Elizabeth Larkam and Bally’s Total Fitness). I completed Levels 1 through 5 and taught private and group Allegro classes.  I attended my first Body, Mind and Spirit Conference in 2001. It made me realize that we needed to educate the public about the apparatuses and of all the exercises of Contrology, and not just Mat. I also met Ron Fletcher and fell in love with his work, especially the towel. Since then, I have completed his Level 1 and Level 2 and have become a Certified Teacher of the Ron Fletcher Program of Study. For contact information click here.
