I decided to continue learning and completed my additional 300 hours with Create Karma. Since that time, I have become certified in Chair and Restorative Yoga. I am currently earning my certification in Yin Yoga. My goal is to have yoga accessible to anyone, and I look forward to instructing yoga this year!

Alli Walker
Hi! I am Alli, a Pilates instructor majoring in occupational therapy and Spanish studies. As a dancer in Emotion and a cheerleader and gymnast throughout my childhood, I've always been fascinated by how the body moves and functions. I've enjoyed guiding students as a gymnastics coach for over 3 years and I'd love if you'd join me in class, blending Pilates precision with a fun and energetic approach. Let's work on strength, flexibility, and achieving your fitness goals together!
Elsa Woodarek
Since coming to college, I have deepened my passion for finding joy in movement from running, to lifting to yoga. I have recently completed my 200-hour YTT certification and am excited to share the power of yoga on campus. I believe yoga is a tool to live more connected, intentional lives. Let’s get our minds and bodies aligned together, can’t wait to see you on the mat!
Corinne Nestor
My name is Corinne Nestor, and I am an occupational therapy major. Throughout my life I have participated in various sports including field hockey, swim, and lacrosse. Since ending these sports, I began spending lots of time in the gym learning my favorite ways to work out. Through this journey I have found that fitness classes are my passion, leading me to become a spin instructor for RecWell. I hope to share with everyone my passion for fitness and create an open and engaging environment for all fitness levels.

My name is Bailey Pruitt, and I am a senior Exercise Science major. With my passion to become a physical therapist, I have always been fascinated by how the body moves and believe there is medicine behind movement. Through my spin classes, I hope to provide a sense of empowerment and community, as well as a safe space where students and staff can build on their resilience and strength, both physically and mentally.
