Hi, I’m Corinne Schwartz.

Corinne Schwartz graduated Summa Cum Laude from California State University, Long Beach with a BA in Dance Science, is an ABT Certified Teacher, and completed the BASI Comprehensive Pilates Teacher Training with Dance Specialization. Her formal ballet training began in Santa Cruz, California where she performed the role of Snow Queen in the Nutcracker and trained to compete in the Youth American Grand Prix. With Corinne’s fascination of movement, her transition into Pilates came easily at the young age of 11. She was immediately drawn to the practice and injury prevention. This interest continued to grow as she attended college, with a focus on dance and kinesiology. She had the privilege of studying under CSULB’s distinguished faculty and taking Pilates courses with the renowned Karen Clippinger. Corinne has taught at various studios in California (Balletiquette, VIDA Pilates, One Body Studios, Playa Pilates, and Agape Dance Academy), assisted Karen Clippinger and Lisa Johnson in Pilates courses, and worked as a tutor for Dance Anatomy at CSULB. Corinne strives to share the joy of movement with her clients. Her unique teaching style emphasizes form, precision, and technique while promoting a safe and welcoming learning environment. She believes the discipline and traditions associated with dance and Pilates are just as important as the joy and bliss felt while exploring movement.
