The Pilates Cure

Andrea discovered the endless benefits of Pilates when knee pain forced her to stop her typical fitness routines in early 2008. Pilates was unlike anything she had ever experienced and her immediate love led her to enroll in a Pilates Apprentice program before the end of 2008 and later complete a Pilates training program. In 2014, while managing a local Pilates Studio in Fort Mill, Andrea applied and was accepted into Lolita San Miguel’s two-year Pilates Master Mentor Program in Florida. Lolita trained with Joseph Pilates while a Prima Ballerina in New York, NY and was one of only two people to receive a Pilates Teaching Certificate directly from Joseph Pilates himself, making Lolita a First Generation Pilates Teacher. When Andrea graduated the PMMP in 2017 as a Second Generation Pilates Teacher, she was then invited to complete the invitation-only teacher training program, Lolita’s Legacy. Upon completion of the Legacy training, Andrea now has the honor to teach and train other teachers within the Pilates industry. Andrea is also a Certified Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine and has three specializations within the field; Corrective Exercise Specialization, Fitness Nutrition Specialization and Mindset Coaching.
