Irene Clancy

Irene has been a Pilates instructor for 5 years. She loves teaching because Pilates gives people the chance to truly discover what their bodies are capable of. There’s nothing more rewarding as an instructor than watching someone fall in love with movement, seeing their confidence grow as they realize they are stronger, more capable, and more connected to themselves than they ever thought possible. It’s a privilege to be part of that journey.

Irene’s studio opened in February 2023.

“Being a teacher of teachers has been one of the most meaningful parts of my journey. It’s challenged me to dig deeper into myself — to remember that every person learns differently, and that real teaching isn’t just about delivering information. It’s about connection. It’s about finding a way to reach someone so they can reach deeper into themselves…I always tell my students that anyone can read cues from a book and call it teaching. But true instruction — true leadership — is about seeing who is right in front of you, meeting them where they are, and guiding them forward with intention and care.”

Karly Merrill

Karly has been teaching for 21 years, including comprehensive certification, classical training, and continuing education around pelvic floor, core activation, and breathing proficiency. Her favorite thing about teaching is seeing clients completely change in a single hour of instruction. People walk easier, they breathe easier and their nervous systems have reset. It’s visible that they have transitioned from sympathetic to parasympathetic after our sessions. Their posture is better, but they don’t look like they are working hard to feel their abs; it’s automatic.

Karly has owned her studio for 10 years, which has won “Best Pilates Studio” or runner-up in Capital Region Living Magazine every year since 2015. She has been a teacher of teachers through PEI since February of 2023, and has since graduated 7-8 student teachers in the 100 hour mat program and many others in the comprehensive 450 hour training. One of her student teachers has even gone on to open her own studio in the region!

“I love teaching teachers because it’s really cool seeing how good they have become from my program.”
