Around the corner, in South Vegas, lies Stance Pilates—a sanctuary for women seeking empowerment through personalized fitness. Recently founded by Teya Lorts, a passionate Pilates instructor with a background in dance and web development, Stance Pilates offers a unique approach to fitness, focusing on individualized sessions tailored to each client's needs.
For Teya, Pilates is more than just a workout; it is a calling—a way to fuse her love for movement with her desire to empower others. "During the COVID-19 pandemic, Pilates became my refuge," Teya recalls. "It was a way to channel my energy and help others thrive amidst uncertainty."
At Stance Pilates, the emphasis is on personalized attention and proper technique. Unlike traditional group classes, clients receive one-on-one guidance to ensure correct form and address specific needs. Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and extensive training from the BASI Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training Program, Teya is dedicated to building resilience and lifelong mobility in her clients.
"In a private session, every detail matters," Teya emphasizes. "My goal is to prevent injuries and help clients forge a deeper connection with their bodies." Witnessing her clients experience their own "aha" moments as they master Pilates techniques is immensely gratifying to Teya, reinforcing her belief in the power of personalized instruction.
But what sets Stance Pilates apart is its tailored approach to women's wellness. From prenatal Pilates, offering expectant mothers a safe way to maintain movement during pregnancy, to strength training during menopause, Stance Pilates recognizes the importance of adapting exercises to different stages of life.
"Pilates is not just a workout—it's a journey towards empowerment," Teya reflects. Beyond physical benefits, Pilates serves as a form of movement meditation, providing women with a sacred space to prioritize self-care amidst the chaos of everyday life.
As Teya navigates the uncertainties of entrepreneurship, she remains committed to continuous growth and learning. "Being a great teacher starts with being a great student," she affirms. By immersing herself in her own learning journey, Teya ensures that she brings the best possible experience to her students, embodying the ethos of Stance Pilates—empowerment through movement.
In a world where women's wellness often takes a backseat amidst so many responsibilities, Stance Pilates is an advocate for the importance of self-care. With Teya's guidance and support, women of all ages and fitness levels embark on a journey towards strength, wellness, and holistic well-being.
