Get to know our owner and founder, Susan DeBouver
Through fitness research, Susan discovered Joseph H. Pilates method of body conditioning. She began studying his method and saw the many benefits of his program. Years after she began studying she decided to become certified so that she could bring this method to participants and share the myriad of benefits Pilates and Mind, Body, & Breath work offer. In November 2001, Susan achieved her SCW FITNESS Pilates certification. Susan continues her education by taking classes & training with other Pilates and mind/body professionals.
A few thoughts from the owner & primary instructor of Pilates Plus of Schaumburg.
Pilates Plus of Schaumburg is a small studio and is designed to be as stress-free as possible for the participants and instructors because stress brings imbalance. I want the first priority to be the wellness of the participant and instructors who choose to come to the studio. I do not want the sterile feel of a big wellness center or fitness club. It's purposely a very different environment from that. The rules are not rigid and input from all is encouraged because not one person has all the answers. I like collective reasoning. At Pilates Plus of Schaumburg we value the input of our participants and tailor classes to meet your needs and to fit your schedule. Through hand written surveys, e-mail surveys, and personal interaction we learn the needs of each individual student. I want every instructor to be very approachable. This is an environment where you will be encouraged and supported. Our classes are small and we devote many hours "behind the scenes" to the particulars of our studio. Every part of Pilates Plus of Schaumburg was chosen with great care to provide our clients with the best possible experience.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you! The tremendous amount of support Pilates Plus of Schaumburg has received from our participants and the community has been incredible. My goals of what Pilates Plus of Schaumburg would be have been met and exceeded. (And we're just getting started!) I can't wait to see the future of our studio.
Thank you!
Susan
