Laura Hanlon
Laura Hanlon has been practicing Pilates for over 15 years as a supplement to her professional dance career and active lifestyle. As a young girl, Laura was constantly moving and grooving, from competitive figure skating to swim team and racing track and cross country. Throughout the numerous activities that she found herself taking part in, she felt compelled to keep up her own practice of self-care, both mentally and physically. With the constant overwork of some muscle groups and underworking of others, she was extremely grateful to welcome a Pilates practice into her weekly routine.
After graduating from the University of California, Irvine with her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Performance, Laura embarked on the National Tour of Dancing with Your Stars before moving to New York City. While continuing her dance career in a new city, she held the title of Pilates Manager, Teacher Trainer, and Senior Instructor for numerous Equinox clubs, and is still a proud part of their Group Fitness team. Laura currently splits her time between New York City and Southern California, where she teaches private clientele both virtually and in person, and co-directs the Pilates Teacher Training Program at Studio du Corps.
Over the past ten years, Laura has continued her Pilates education by attending countless workshops and lectures to better her teaching and personal practice and has completed additional hours in Pre and Post Natal training. Largely in part to her background, she is extraordinarily passionate about the Pilates Method and her clients' progress in reaching and exceeding their personal goals. Laura specializes in strengthening and lengthening the full body for dancers, athletes, and anyone else interested in building long lean muscles and becoming a stronger and better version of themselves from the inside out!
