Fiona became a yoga teacher after moving to the USA in 2008, having completed her 200-hour training in Sivananda Yoga in the UK. While teaching yoga at a studio in Northern Virginia, Fiona was encouraged to try Pilates. Precise, detail-orientated and positive instruction from knowledgeable instructors kindled a love for Pilates that led Fiona to pursue her own teacher certification. Fiona completed her Pilates training in 2009 and has taught with precision and positivity at studios throughout Northern Virginia and Washington DC since that time. She has subsequently earned certifications in Core Barre, Core Align and TRX. Fiona lives in Alexandria with her husband and two young children. In addition to her regular Pilates and Barre practice, she and her family enjoy spending time outdoors: walking, canoeing, swimming and exploring nature.
