Emily Urbansoky Wills, Owner, Level I Master Instructor

Education: Creator of Century Pilates® Teacher Training Certification Program, Certified in Alycea Ungaro REAL® Pilates, Power Pilates®, TRX®, V’Barre®

Emily is trained in the classical Pilates Method and continues to teach in that tradition. In 2011 while living in Alpine, TX, Emily came to know Pilates’ method after seeking alternative solutions to better cope with her scoliosis. The results empowered Emily to pursue her first 600 hour comprehensive certification through the distinguished Power Pilates® teacher training program headquartered in New York. Soon after completing her first certification, Emily pursued her second comprehensive Pilates certification by bridging to the prestigious and rigorous, Alycea Ungaro Real Pilates® teacher training program, becoming a 3rd generation teacher of the Romana Kryzanowska lineage. Emily is also certified in Vbarre®. Emily continues to take classes and workshops regularly with senior Pilates Instructors and elders to stay well informed and at the top of her trade.
