Meet John Garey & Team

The Values that Drive John Garey

  • Move with Purpose

    It’s not just about exercise—it’s about feeling good, growing stronger, and showing up for yourself.

  • Teach with Heart

    Whether I’m on camera or leading a workshop, I bring energy, honesty, and a whole lot of love to every session.

  • Never Stop Learning

    I believe in staying curious, leveling up, and helping others do the same—because great teachers never stop being students.

John Garey is on a mission to make Pilates fun and approachable

He wants everyone who is interested to experience Pilates—and share his love of fitness. He wants more Pilates teachers out there in the world inspiring health and wellness. John believes in transparency and freedom of information: he offers breakdowns of classes and exercises and loves answering questions about fitness.

John is driven by personal movement and transformation. It’s why he pursued a path in health and fitness. On that path, he’s never stopped learning. Personally, he’s drawn to books, authors, and leaders that help him grow. While he has an eclectic taste in subjects, it all has to do with balance. That desire to grow, learn, and balance percolates through his work as a teacher as he honestly shares what he is working on or going through.
