Renee initially worked as a Registered Nurse (RN), but over time, has devoted herself to understanding physical movement and how daily body movements and the daily strains of the modern lifestyle truly impact how we live.

After becoming a yoga instructor over 10 years ago, Renee then turned to pilates to help her own pain and numbness associated with lumbar stenosis. She found (and continues to find!) tremendous benefits for her mind and body through the practice of pilates.

About 5 years ago, Renee decided to become a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher (NCPT) so she could share the tools that helped her improve her life. She wants to help people be active and to move with ease and comfort.

Renee strives to help people prevent musculoskeletal pain, and to alleviate it when it does occur. She accomplishes this by teaching better posture, body alignment and body mechanics, with the ultimate goal of maintaining movement and an active lifestyle for years to come.

Maggie is a 500-hour registered yoga instructor who has been practicing yoga for over a decade.

She found yoga during a personal trauma and was quickly drawn to the community, strength of the practice and the devotional experience through Bhakti. She fell in love with the Jivamukti style that was taught at the studio, which incorporated uplifting music, rigorous movement and liberation of the body and soul.

She obtained her 200-hour Vinyasa teaching certificate in 2014 at Buddha B Yoga in Washington, DC and focused on teaching private and semi-private classes.

In 2019 she and her family moved out to the Main Line and she was lucky enough to find Prana Das Yoga in Ardmore, PA. Here she experienced a deep appreciation of Ashtanga and Yin, and in 2020 received an additional 300-hour teaching certificate through the studio. Although a Vinyasa instructor, Maggie draws influence from Ashtanga, Jivamukti and Yin to create a unique, challenging and joyful experience in her classes.

You will leave feeling uplifted and a little sweaty! She is so excited to be working with her best friend, Dr. Fields, and joining the incredible team at CLIMB.
