OUR STUDIO

We're Classical.

New isn’t always better.

​

Our work is in conversation with our roots. Haus works with the original system and applies it to each client with structure, precision, and consistency. We don’t chase variation for the sake of it, instead choosing to refine what works for an enduring practice.

​

Inside the studio, every exercise serves a purpose. Breath, control, alignment, and flow are not concepts, they are requirements.

​

This is work that's built to last.

ABOUT
JULIA LENO

Owner + Instructor

Instructor Julia Leno found Pilates in 2014 after it was recommended to her by a doctor as part of a pain management plan for a medical condition. After falling in love with the method and years of devoted personal practice, Julia chose to leave corporate America and pursue Pilates as a full time career. She is comprehensively trained and certified through Alycea Ungaro’s Real Pilates Teacher Training program.

 

Taking her curious and playful personality into her work, Julia takes an exploratory approach into each session, finding ways to make each exercise potent and feeling new to her clients - even if it’s their 100th session. She regularly expands her knowledge base through personal research, practice, and learning directly from her peers and industry leaders.

ABOUT
ELIZABETH GRAHAM

Haus Instructor

Instructor, Elizabeth Graham, found Pilates roughly seventeen years ago, shortly after graduating from law school. She was looking for a way to stay active and found that Pilates not only challenged her physically, but also challenged her mind.

 

After many years as a devoted practitioner, Elizabeth decided to become a teacher, and is now a comprehensively trained third-generation Pilates instructor, certified through Alycea Ungaro's Real Pilates. In each session, Elizabeth strives to challenge her clients by pushing them to work to their full strength, while making sure that they laugh at least once every session. She works to get to know each of her clients individually, so that each hour spent in the studio is a specialized and unique experience, targeted towards meeting each client's goals.
