Susan Simon
Owner, Harmony Pilates Studio, Apex, NC
I began my career as a dancer with a deep appreciation of classical and contemporary dance. After moving to California and having my second child, I suffered significant pain in my low back from a bulging disc. Given my familiarity with Pilates and its focus on core stabilization, I trained my way to complete recovery and became a fully certified Pilates Mat and Equipment Instructor through the prestigious PhysicalMind Institute®.
I continue with self-practice and enjoy staying up to date on the latest innovations in The Method Pilates because I believe the greatest teachers never stop learning. My credentials and accomplishments include a 1992 Bachelor of Arts in Dance from Point Park College, 2001 Mat/Equipment Certification from the PhysicalMind Institute®, 2006 PMA Certification, and 5 years experience as a Pilates Personal Instructor in California.
My own personal experience includes 32 years of dance, body and health awareness, and physical conditioning knowledge. My method of teaching has been described by my peers and my clients as knowledgeable, caring, patient and experienced. I look forward to working together with you on your journey. Whether you desire to become more fit, pain free, or are just looking for an exploration of self, the flexibility of Pilates will enable us to design a program that is just right for you.
