Pilates Process Founder
Laura Helsel
As the founder of Pilates Process, like many Pilates teachers, Laura came from a career in dance. Pilates seemed like a perfect fit for someone with decades of experience analyzing movement and thought it would be a stepping stone to something else. After working as a Stott Pilates™ instructor trainer for several years, Laura opened Pilates Process in Toronto in 2001.
Laura has taken extensive courses, developing her expertise in multiple areas including core stability, biomechanics, low back pain, chronic pain management, patella femoral syndrome, and fascial training.
She then developed the teacher training program with a new approach to Pilates. The Pilates Process ™ method began in 2003. Since then, we have trained and mentored hundreds of teachers and continue to lead the field in our adaptive, evolving approach.
