Meet Our Instructors

Hi! I’m Alexa! Music and Movement is an art that I have enjoyed and been passionate about since I was a little girl. Growing up competitively dancing taught me a lot about the effects that music and movement have on your body and overall well-being. My goal as an instructor is to help guide students towards what makes them feel good. I believe that the power of breath, movement, mindfulness, some good music, a good sweat, and a smile can help clear the mind and bring the body to a state of awareness. We often times get caught up in the hustle of life and I want to help guide you to create balance between work and play. I will lead you through creative flows that will get your energy flowing. My goal as part owner and founder of Aligned Movement is to create a space where you can come be yourself, heal, make connections, and have fun!

Hi, I’m Julian! My passion for movement began with dance. I was a competitive dancer for 13 years. Movement fueled my soul throughout my childhood. Entering my 20’s I got introduced to Hot HIIT Pilates. Hot HIIT Pilates made me feel alive, and I eventually decided to become a certified instructor. My goal as an instructor is to create a space where people can come let go and have a good time. As co-founder, my focus for Aligned Movement is for students and teachers to become more internally focused. It is easy to get caught up in our external selves, worrying about our image in the world. Showing up for you is the first step of that journey.

Hi! My name is Alexis! I am a passionate yoga teacher whose journey into the practice began at a young age. Growing up, I was always drawn to movement, discovering early on how yoga could bring balance, clarity, and strength to both the mind & body. Inspired by the transformative power of the practice, I started teaching yoga during highschool because I was eager to share the benefits of yoga with others. Completing my training in 2024 has opened more doors for me to share this practice with others and help them connect their mind & body on the mat. While you will find some clarity on the mat with me, you will also learn that life is too short to take everything seriously, so you will be encouraged to find some fun in the practice as well!

 Ally has been dedicated to yoga for over a decade and has spent several years sharing her passion as a teacher. Initially drawn to the peace of mind yoga brings, she quickly discovered its profound ability to connect breath, body, and spirit—transforming it from a physical practice into a way of life. As an instructor, Ally creates a nurturing space where students feel empowered to grow. Her classes emphasize strength, flexibility, and calming the mind, blending breathwork and mindfulness to deepen awareness. Whether guiding dynamic flows or restorative practices, Ally encourages her students to honor their bodies, embrace challenges, and trust their unique journeys. Join Ally on the mat to discover your strength, reconnect with your breath, and come home to your heart.

Hello! My name is Bella! I grew up a competitive dancer and loved to move my body. After leaving, I missed the incredible feeling I got after dancing, but after taking my first class at Aligned, I knew it was something amazing. My body was instantly in love with that post class feeling you get, I left glowing and having never felt better! I was craving more and more. It instantly became the best part of my week going to class, not only because it was an incredible source of movement for my body, but because of the radiating positive energy you find at Aligned Movement.

As an instructor, my goal is to make sure everyone is having fun as they move, and leaving class feeling satisfied and craving more! I want you all to leave class feeling like the best versions of yourself!

Caitlin is a 200-hour yoga teacher with a dual certification in power and restorative practices. Her passion is to heal and guide students through the practice of yoga using the power of breath to movement. She will lead you through creative flows that align the body and soul while also making sure every student leaves with a smile on their face and a little more love in their heart. Yoga is your practice so stepping onto your mat and showing up for yourselves without any judgment is her goal - and to have fun, of course. I promise you won't leave this class without having a laugh, cause this bubbly teacher will be sure to get at least one out of you. Her mantra is "life is just not that serious" because well, we are all guilty of taking life a little too seriously. Come flow, relax, and release, but mainly come as you are. A stronger version of yourself is waiting and she can't wait to help you transform. 

 Darah has been inspired by movement since the age of three. It all started (and never stopped) with dance and led to yoga years later, for which she is eternally grateful. Darah started teaching various forms of yoga beginning in 2017 and has since earned her 200 hour yoga teacher certification. Outside of the studio, she teaches 6th grade and enjoys being outside in nature with her husband. Darah encourages all humans to find movement every day that brings joy to their lives.

Hi, I’m Gabby! I have been a dancer for my entire life and movement has always been the way I connect with myself and with those around me. I recently graduated with a BFA in Dance and a BS in Biology, Health, and Society from the University of Michigan, and I am pursuing an MS in Nutrition at Boston University.

I instantly felt a deep connection with the classes at Aligned Movement because I always leave the room feeling more grounded and centered than when I walked in. Each class not only builds strength, focus, and endurance, but also fosters an uplifting and empowering energy in the room that is truly special. With every class I teach, I aim to bring this same energy to help you feel strong, empowered, and connected with yourself on and off the mat!

Hi, I’m Lani! Growing up an athlete, I have always had a passion for movement. I was an avid gym goer for years, but after a while, it began to feel like something I had to do rather than something I wanted to do. I started exploring different types of movement and listening to my body. After my first class at aligned movement, I felt my spark come alive again. The class setting was uplifting, and I always left excited to return for more. I fell in love with the practice and recently got certified as a Hot HIIT Pilates instructor. I’m excited to share my love of movement and fitness with you all, and I hope to inspire you to move your body because we get to, not because we have to. 

 Hi! I’m Kendyll! I’ve had a deep appreciation for movement since I was little. I’ve always been fascinated how intentional movement can build strength, improve posture, and enhance your overall well being.
After college I quickly found my love for movement again. I was inspired by my mom who has been a spin and group fitness instructor for my half my life. Prior to college I was a competitive athlete, competing in multiple different sports. I knew I wanted to get back into it & now I’m excited I can help others re find their love for movement.
I fell in love with Pilates and its low impact approach, and the way it empowers people to feel strong, balanced, and connected. As an instructor my goal is to create a welcoming and encouraging space where students of all levels can explore their potential. I’ll focus on alignment, breath, and control to help each person move with confidence both in and out of the studio. Let’s grow together! See you on your mat! 

Hi, I’m Kylie! My journey with group fitness started with barre, and I fell in love with the class environment. This love most recently led me to yoga and Pilates. There is just something different about Hot HIIT Pilates at Aligned. The energy is addicting and inspiring, and I became obsessed with how I felt after completing class. This feeling led me to get certified as a Hot HIIT Pilates instructor.

My goal in each class is to give my students an escape, a safe place to disconnect from the world. I promise my classes are filled with energy, good vibes, and upbeat music. 

I hope to see you in one of my classes soon!

    Hi! My name is Maddie. I have always found peace and joy in physical activity. I grew up as a competitive cheerleader and moved on to continue in Acrobatics and Tumbling in College. I have been practicing yoga for many years, but I just recently found that I love sharing my practice with others! It is very important to move your body in a way that feels good and fuels both your heart and soul. My goal is to welcome everyone who comes into my class with open arms and help them find as much love in this practice as I do! Yoga has helped to open my eyes and heart to a world of opportunities on and off of the mat, and I hope that it can do the same for you as well!

 Hi, I’m Mia! I discovered my love for Pilates through the powerful connection it builds between mind and body. After going through my own healing experience with Endometriosis, movement became even more meaningful to me — helping me rebuild strength, resilience, and a deeper connection with myself. As an instructor, I’m passionate about creating a space where everyone feels strong, confident, and supported exactly as they are. I hope to inspire others to trust their bodies, celebrate their strength, and feel empowered through movement. My classes are a safe space to have fun, meet new people, and learn something new about yourself each time you practice. I look forward to moving together! 

  Hi! I’m Meg! Movement has always been a part of my life. I grew up dancing and later earned my degree in Health Science and Nutrition from Bridgewater State University. I became a certified Personal Trainer through the International Sports Science Association and have spent the last two years training one-on-one clients. Today, I manage and own Be Fit Performance with my husband in Lakeville, MA.

From the first class I took at Aligned, I was hooked — the energy, the sweat, the community, and the drive of everyone in the room reminded me why I love group fitness so much. There’s nothing like teaching a room full of amazing people — it's a spark that will never fade.

"Move with purpose, train with passion."

 Hi, I'm Meg! Growing up as a competitive dancer taught me to appreciate movement at a young age. This love was always something I wanted to share with others. To this end, I wanted to find more ways to move my body and decided to become an Outdoor Fitness Court ambassador and a certified Zumba instructor.

I fell in love with Hot HIIT Pilates, the first class I took. I left the class feeling motivated, inspired and wanting more. With this, I wanted to gain more knowledge and decided to become a certified instructor. 

As an instructor, I hope to inspire the students and have them leave the class feeling excited, motivated, and confident.

Hi my name is Morgan! Moving my body has always been such an important part of my life. Growing up, I competed in all star cheerleading for 12 years, which is what I owe my love for movement to. Soon after aging out of the sport, I picked up weightlifting, but wanted to find something where I still felt I was a part of a community, like in cheerleading. When I took my first Pilates class at Aligned, I felt at home. The people, the vibes, the music… I instantly fell in love with the practice. This then led me to becoming a certified Hot HIIT Pilates instructor! I can’t wait to share my love for movement with you and hope to inspire you to try something new!
