Our Shared Mission
Together, Brian and Suzanne created PilatiBarre as a place where movement meets purpose. Their vision is to combine the art of dance, the science of rehabilitation, and the joy of Pilates and Barre to help both professionals and community members grow stronger—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Whether you’re a healthcare provider seeking CEUs, a fitness professional expanding your expertise, or someone looking to move with greater freedom and resilience, you’re welcome here.
Today, Brian and Suzy shares their expertise not only with clients in the studio but also with health professionals and fitness instructors through their continuing education courses and the PilatiBarre Certification Program.

After a life-changing traumatic brain injury, Brian turned to Pilates as a pathway to recovery—an experience that deepened his passion for helping others build strength, restore balance, and rediscover confidence through mindful movement.
