Janet Thompson B.Ed
Certified STOTT PILATES® Certified Instructor , (Mat, Reformer, CCB, ISP)
 Jan has a diverse fitness and education background. She holds a Bachelor of Education degree, certificate Langue Seconde and certifications through SPRA and Can-Fit-Pro as a Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer. Jan has 20 years teaching experience in various Elementary Schools, teaching Fr. Immersion and also working as an Arts.Ed./Physical Education Itinerant Specialist.
She has led various forms of fitness classes since 1990 and began taking Pilates classes in 2003 in hopes of strengthening her core stability, an area that was missing in her regular fitness training. Pilates gave her a true understanding of proper movement of her body. Jan found that Pilates helped reduce her stress level with her busy lifestyle, and became her own personal "massage therapist", by decreasing pain and tension in her body.
Her interest and passion for the work led her to become a STOTT PILATES® Certified Instructor in 2005, and completed her full certification in 2008. Jan's enthusiasm for Pilates is infectious. She has instructed group classes, private clients, as well has worked with children and young athletes to help enhance their performance through Pilates. |
