Nancy Henderson

@ In Forma: Mat Pilates Instructor

Nancy  teaches  Pilates-based classes that focuses on toning and strengthening the musculature while enhancing flexibility and body awareness.

Nancy was soloist with Pacific Ballet Company of San Francisco for nine years, and has taught ballet technique for twenty years. She was Artistic Director of her own schools of ballet in San Francisco and Oaxaca, Mexico.

Her classes focus on training the physical body while developing the awareness of how to work from the “inside-out,” rather than performing the movements by mimicking the exercise. The integration of breath with the muscular engagement of the core is emphasized. Since Pilates mat classes are offered three times a week, physical tone and core strength result in a matter of months.
