Instructors Bio
ADRIENNE FITZMAURICE
Twenty plus years ago Adrienne discovered that hanging herself upside down from fuzzy straps attached to something called the “Cadillac” and stretching, elongating, and challenging her balance on a bed of springs called the “Reformer” could improve her dancing and better yet correct her scoliosis.
Five years later she found herself flying back and forth to the world -renowned Pilates Center in Boulder, Colorado. 800 hours later she walked away with a teaching certification that began her 20- year (and still counting) teaching journey. This journey led her study with some the greatest movement geniuses of all time; Amy Alpers, Rachel Taylor Segel, Deborah Kolway, Kathy Grant, Mary Bowen, Ron Fletcher, and Juliu Hovarth.
In 2003 Adrienne opened the doors of Align Pilates in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is here that she founded the Align Pilates and Barre teacher Training programs. In 2007-2014 she founded and directed the Align Pilates Surf Retreat held at the Harmony Hotel right here in Nosara. She sold Align Pilates in 2014 to spend more time with her family and concentrate on just teaching and hosting retreats.
Adrienne’s students have the benefit of learning not only from her Pilates knowledge, but also from her knowledge and certifications of many other movement modalities that she includes in her classes and trainings; Gyrotonic, yoga, Pranassage, ballet, and modern dance.
She currently lives in Minneapolis and spends part of the winter in Playa Guiones.
MICHELLE LYNN
Michelle is a devoted and enthusiastic student of Ashtanga Yoga. She is strongly committed to passing on the traditional method of Ashtanga Yoga. After her initial teaching certification, she continues to study with the top Ashtanga teachers in the world including Govinda Kai, Manju Pattabhi Jois, David Williams, David Swenson, Lino Miele, Tim Miller, Richard Freeman and Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. Michelle has the unique ability to work with students of all levels in an encouraging and compassionate manner, making her sessions both accessible and challenging. She has an eye for precise structural alignment and effective verbal cueing. Her teaching style is soft and focused, with constant attention and awareness being drawn back to the Internal Alignment, Ujjayi (Victorious) breath, the bandhas (internal energy locks) and the dristi (gazing points), the essence of the Ashtanga system.
