She is a professional, freelance dance artist and encountered Pilates through a dance injury. Recovering from several injuries and witnessing the power of Pilates in herself she wanted to spread that to others. She began teaching Pilates in 2011, receiving over 500 hours of training and certification in Mat and Pilates Apparatus from Studio Anya in New York City.

She continued her teaching career in Miami, helping to open the first Club Pilates of Miami and also taught at Iron Flower Fitness and SoFlow Fitness and Wellness. Besides Pilates, she has also been trained as a Yoga (500 RYT), Barre and TRX instructor throughout her journey. Manuela moved back to her hometown in Brooklyn and help open the first Club Pilates in NYC in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn. She continues to spread Pilates love as their lead instructor and represents the brand citywide. She loves sharing her knowledge of fitness with her fellow New Yorkers and hopes to continue making an impact through her teaching!
