Elle A.

Certified Pilates Instructor
Elshadayi (Elle) Antenhe was born in Ethiopia and moved to Washington in 2006. She discovered Pilates while working the front desk at a studio and quickly fell in love with how strong it made her feel- especially as someone who never felt “sporty” or super active growing up. Pilates clicked with her energy, her ADHD brain, and became the first workout that worked with her, not against her. She became an instructor to show people who hate working out (just like she once did) that movement doesn’t have to be dreadful. Her fun, challenging flows and upbeat cardio sections—always powered by loud, motivating music—are her signature. Elshadayi wants every client to leave class feeling grateful for the body they have and inspired to keep moving at any age. When she’s not teaching, she also works as a model and brings that same creativity and confidence into her classes.
