Emily Gell Pilates

//BODY ARCHITECTURE// SPECIALIZING IN CONTROLOLOGY, HEALTH & FITNESS CONSULTATION AND PAIN MANAGEMENT

With a personal history of many musculoskeltal conditions resulting in chronic pain and migraine, Emily has vast experience with many traditional and alternative healing methodologies.

Emily began physical therapy at the age of ten and started practicing Pilates by the age of sixteen. Over the years, she has developed not only a broad knowledge of physical structure, alignment, and balance, but also a deep understanding of tension and release when it comes to pain.

It isn't all therapy. While any of us over 20 year old need constant maintenance to reverse the compensations of lifestyle and poor posture, every session is uniquely structured to the client's needs and goals. Some need to repair torn ligaments or restructure knees or shoulders. Some are looking for a solid workout specifically designed to challenge their target areas and over all strengthen and lengthen while using the efficiency of a solid core. Clients that commit to a minimum of twice a week see results quickly, those that come three to four times a week see multi-level transformation rapidly.

Emily has been teaching since 2008 at Ellie Herman Pilates Studios in Brooklyn, NY and Oakland, CA, and most recently at Studio U in Venice, CA.
