About Zohreh Ellison

Connecting Body, Mind & Spirit.

Give me your tired, stressed, overworked body and I'll give you back your life. This is Zohreh Ellison's mantra since she was bedridden for two years following open-heart surgery. Zohreh had a number of muscle imbalances that needed correction. "I tried weight training and paddling, but there were still unanswered questions about my health. That's when I decided to study Yoga. It wasn't long before I became a Yoga instructor; and the natural progression for me was to become a Pilates instructor. I am now a fully certified STOTT PILATES^® instructor."

She is serious about her work; but conducts her classes with a smile and spirit, "I work with different people from rehab, beginners, and advanced to professional dancers and professional golfers. Pilates training gives them flexibility, balance, durability, strength and coordination. It connects the body with the mind - working together in a marriage."

Zohreh Ellison is also certified by:

• Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA) as a group exercise instructor.
• YogaFit^® as an instructor.
