To connect with Grace and get information on the next course
“Completing the comprehensive teacher training program through Polestar Pilates was a transformative experience, and that was largely due to Grace's extraordinary guidance. She brings an exceptional depth of knowledge to every weekend — not just in the mechanics of movement, but in the underlying Polestar principles that make Pilates truly effective. Yet what sets her apart is how she shares that knowledge. She is remarkably patient, never rushing through a concept, and always willing to explain a point from a different angle until it clicks. Her humility is genuine; she creates a space where questions are welcomed, not judged, and where learning feels collaborative rather than hierarchical. She is also deeply talented in her craft — able to read bodies, anticipate challenges, and offer precise cues that unlock progress. And through it all, she leads with kindness. She celebrates your wins and supports you through the hard days without making you feel inadequate. If you're looking for a teacher who is smart, humble, patient, talented, and kind — someone who will meet you where you are and take you further than you thought possible — I can’t recommend Grace highly enough.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Grace. She is an outstanding instructor, mentor, and teacher. Her knowledge, patience, and genuine passion for Pilates make every session enjoyable and educational. She has been incredibly supportive throughout my Comprehensive Polestar Pilates training and has helped me build confidence as I work toward becoming an instructor. She meets each student where they are, explains concepts clearly, and always creates a welcoming environment. I'm truly grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional Pilates instruction or teacher training.”
