 Lena developed an interest in body mechanics ten years ago, while working as a certified personal trainer and modern dance instructor. In 2003, while pregnant, she added Pilates to her exercise regimen. At the time, she was performing with Cuba Caribe's Iré Ilé, a San Francisco-based all women's Cuban salsa troupe. She has danced with a variety of groups from Los Angeles to Montreal, and studied at the Aix-L'Ecole de Danse in Southern France.
Lena practiced pre and post-natal Pilates under San Francisco Pilates founder, Jesse Singer, before deciding to pursue a comprehensive certification herself. Today, Lena is a STOTT PILATES™ certified instructor with several areas of specialization. She is trained in post-rehabilitation methods though Melissa Condron, a physical therapist and owner of Streamline Bodyworks. She also is fully certified in pre and post-natal Pilates through the Center for Women's Fitness.
