alisa ohri
In 2007 Alisa and her husband moved to Jersey City. She was on the hunt for a Pilates studio to call home. That is when she found the Pilates Haus, a classical Pilates Teacher Training Center.
Her first class at the Pilates Haus was a Mat class taught by none other than Brett Howard himself! (Director of Education for the USPA and second generation/Master Teacher certified by Joseph Pilates’ protégé Romana Kryzanowska.) Alisa realized quickly that Pilates wasn’t just a workout, it was a way of life!
As a full time Singer/Songwriter, Alisa found Pilates to be wonderfully beneficial for her craft. She immediately noticed the connection between core strength and improved breath while performing. After having training as a client at the Pilates Haus for over ten years, Alisa decided to deepen her practice and become a Certified Pilates Instructor in 2017. Alisa also has a dual BA in English and Economics from The University of California, Berkeley.
TOMOKO SHIINA
Tomoko is a fully certified classical Pilates teacher from Brooklyn. She was first introduced to Pilates after she moved from Tokyo to NY with her family and took a post-natal workshop. Not only has Pilates helped her recover physically, she was intrigued how it could connect, strengthen and uplift her mind, body and spirit, restoring her confidence.
Originally, Tomoko has a unique career in health and wellness - she has been active as a global health advocate and health educator for youth and adults, but being a Pilates teacher allows her to add one more special and direct way to serve the diverse community of people, which she thinks is very rewarding. She was certified as a comprehensive Pilates instructor in 2018, and has been teaching both in-person and online, in English and Japanese.
