Hi, and welcome!
I'm Nancy Sanchez, born and raised in Northern Virginia, and currently living, learning and teaching in Gainesville, Virginia.
I'm passionate about movement!
As a kid, I was always riding my bike, roller skating, climbing fences and trees, playing outside, walking everywhere, and taking ballet lessons multiple times a week.
​
I loved movement so much that I studied modern dance education and performance in college, and there was born my love of the study of anatomy. After college, I danced and toured with a professional modern dance company and taught dance all over the Northern Virginia, D.C., and Maryland areas.
​​​
Life happened for a quick minute, and I entered the fitness and Pilates world with a happy heart! I have had the privilege and honor to touch thousands of lives with my teacher-training education and mentoring these last 27 years!
It's my favorite thing, and I would love to help YOU teach Pilates, if that is YOUR favorite thing!

“Nancy Sanchez is an exceptional educator. She views sharing her knowledge and passion with students as part of who she is, rather than part of what she does. I have learned more from Nancy in many ways than I did during the four years of my college education. Working with Nancy brings the material to life and opens opportunities to learn the lessons through experiencing them.” K.B.
​
“Nancy Sanchez is very professional and has a very deep understanding of HOW to teach — her depth of knowledge is clear in the myriad ways she helps me understand what I am doing.” J.K.​
