Introduced to Pilates in 2000, Amanda Goble completed her formal comprehensive training in 2002 through the Physical Mind Institute (under the instruction of Jean Sullivan) and again in 2006 at Vitality Pilates & Physical Therapy.

Amanda’s background is in gymnastics, dance, and circus arts. She performs both ground and aerial circus/theater acts, and teaches classes and workshops on trapeze, conditioning, and stretching, in addition to her Pilates teaching practice. She has found Pilates to be useful for maintaining balance and focus of body and mind throughout her pursuits.

Amanda is dedicated to pursuing additional continuing education through a variety of sources, including physical therapists, Alexander and Feldenkrais practitioners, Thai Massage, Yoga, Somatics, Gyrotonics, and Laban Movement Analysis. She has been fortunate to have been taught and inspired by incredible sources of information and wisdom – her many teachers, mentors, colleagues, friends, and clients!

With a strong foundation in anatomy and a keen eye for alignment, Amanda utilizes imagery and intuition to enable clients to find deepened body awareness in both stillness and motion. She appreciates the continuing opportunity to work with a wide range of clients - assisting them to realize their potential, while honoring their individual needs.

Amanda also coaches circus skills at SHOW Circus Studio in Easthampton, MA.

"Amanda has a thorough knowledge of the principles of working from the core and she teaches those principles with clarity and patience, and she creates a soothing, relaxing atmosphere in the studio.

I have had a number of Pilates teachers in my 20+ years of dancing, but Amanda is extraordinary! Through her, I have been able to greatly improve the efficiency with which I execute the exercises. As a result, I am strengthening my core muscles without any stress on my spine or neck, which in the past was a constant struggle.

Whether you are a novice or an experienced Pilates student, Amanda will guide you to a better, stronger you."
