Welcome to Mae Chesney Pilates!
At Mae Chesney Pilates, we believe in the transformative power of movement to help us live more comfortably in our bodies and bring us home to ourselves.
Our classes offer a unique blend of contemporary Pilates, ballet inspired standing work, and somatic embodiment practices.
Mae Chesney is a lifelong student of movement, certified STOTT Pilates® instructor, and professional ballet dancer with over 15 years of teaching experience and a specialty in embodiment practices and helping clients manage their pain.
“I am so happy to have found Mae. Her understanding of movement has helped me tremendously over the years. I feel stronger, more balanced, and more in tune with my body after each of my sessions with her. Mae knows how to work with and around injuries. She knows when to push me and when we need to slow down. And, on top of it all, she is such a kind person. I absolutely love working with Mae and truly look forward to each of our sessions.”

“Mae is an amazing teacher. She brings her experience as a professional ballerina and her deep understanding of how the body works to each lesson. She completely transformed my body. Six years later I still look forward to each session.”

“Mae is an amazing teacher. I have been doing Pilates for fifteen years now, and I started Mae’s class four years ago, she is one of the best teachers I know. She combines her dance background with her knowledge of the body to make her classes accessible to everyone. Over the years, I have had many injuries, but I am always able to take her classes. Mae is a beautiful dancer, teacher and person!”
