About Us

Susan Blanchard

I found Pilates while living in Los Angeles. While walking my dog in Runyon Canyon I tore the ligaments in my right foot and was on crutches for three months. Not able to do anything else I ordered some mat Pilates DVDs. What happened was actually incredible. Not only did I lose weight (and never gained it back once I got off the crutches) my hips stopped hurting, and I could finally sleep through the night. When I moved back to Georgia a few years ago I decided to take a few Pilates classes on the reformers, and I immediately fell in love with it. I always thought Pilates was not for me because I am not a dancer, and Pilates is for dancers and gymnasts.

In 2011 I finished my Comprehensive training through Power Pilates. I opened Movement Pilates in the spring of 2012.
