About American Pilates Co. , Founder and Owner Danya Dewolfe
I began practicing Pilates in 2008 as I attended college at DePaul University in Chicago. Pilates played a role of physical and mental therapy for me as I transitioned out of my teenage gymnastic career. With Pilates, I had reduced all pain and inflammation throughout my body and recovered from five year old injuries. My mobility was like never before. Pilates also inspired me to try other sports and athletic activities that I had reservations on, such as golf, tennis and volleyball. It has since become a core foundation in my life.
I decided to pursue my comprehensive certification with Stott Pilates in Toronto in 2014. The elements I would learn within comprehensive Pilates repertoires would be challenging. I found my strengths quickly as well as my weaknesses. I discovered a concentrated interest on the Pilates reformer and cadillac. The cadillac offered my reintroduction to gymnastics and I quickly became obsessed with the assisted movements it provided.
With an academic background in biological neuroscience and human anatomy, body dynamics and kinetic movement has always been an interest of mine. Bringing that knowledge with me into my Pilates career has been incredibly functional.
Life will always bring on tests and trials. After fighting cancer in 2023/24, and succumbing to many changes within my body, I decided to enter a bridge program with Equinox Fitness & Education. Completing this program has allowed me to become a powerful master trainer and train other to instruct Pilates on all levels of expertise. I continue to learn and practice daily with Pilates and dance to advance my contrology practice, as a true master will always be in motion as a student.
