About Gina Pilates:

Gina Curley has spent a lifetime as a dedicated fitness enthusiast and practitioner. Raised by a military father who valued fitness, she grew up playing in boys’ baseball and soccer teams with her brothers, running track, marathons, competing in outrigger canoe races, cheering, dancing, and understands the commitment needed for a healthy, active lifestyle.  

Gina’s journey to becoming a certified Pilates instructor was a transformative one, sparked by a major car accident. The accident left her with significant injuries requiring three back-to-back surgeries. During her recovery, she discovered Pilates’ healing benefits and decided to leave her successful private banking career in Los Angeles to train intensively with a master trainer whose philosophy is grounded and based on the Stott Pilates method.

Now in Vermont, she shares her love for Pilates, weaving in the ‘Aloha spirit’ from her Hawaiian homeland which emphasizes unity, harmony, and kindness, encouraging genuine connections enabling individuals to not only build physical strength but also to connect with their inner selves and find balance through the mind-body connection.

When not in studio, she spends her time renovating a 200+ year old farmhouse with her husband. Both are passionate about preservation and the arts and plan to use their barns as a community gathering space and future artist in residence retreat to inspire and support emerging artists and creative talent.
