Stephanie Tirdel

Owner & Pilates Instructor

Hello!  I received my Stott Pilates (a contemporary approach to the original teachings of Joseph Pilates) certification in 2001 and AntiGravity Aerial Fitness certification in 2016.  Prior to forging STHIEL PILATES  & Movement Center in 2005 I danced, taught and choreographed professionally with Labco Dance Company, Dance Alloy Theater and Attack Theatre of Pittsburgh to name a few and I still work as a freelance choreographer.  I hold a BA in Psychology with a minor in biology from Youngstown State University.
In 2008, after enduring back pain for years from life as a gymnast, professional dancer, the wake of three auto accidents and the stressors of single parenthood, (single parents I know the struggle is real),  yet another injury sidelined my career as a performing artist.  It was at that time I sought deeper study of movement efficiency and movement without pain on my path to recovery.  Now, due to a blend of Pilates, AntiGravity Aerial Fitness, Yoga  and Fascial Fitness, I  have been able to forgo two back surgeries, reduce my pain and in 2016 was able to perform for the first time since 2009. A firm believer in ‘everything happening for a reason’,  I have found the experience of the injuries has helped me relate to the needs of my clients at times.
I believe in holistic teaching and in cross-training movement that enhances balance, muscle confusion, proper alignment, strength, agility, flexibility, pain reduction with an increased overall state of wellbeing.  Come, experience your best self at STHIEL PILATES & MOVEment Center.
