Huge congratulations to our newest 600-Hour Comprehensive Graduate, Elode Croas! 🎉

Originally from France and now based on the Upper West Side of New York City, Elode describes herself as fun, sociable, and organized. Outside of the studio, she enjoys spending time with friends and embracing an active lifestyle that keeps her connected to the people around her.

Her Pilates journey began nearly two decades ago, and what first drew her in was the endless opportunity for growth. She fell in love with the feeling of discovering new ways to move, continually improving, and experiencing those changes firsthand in her own body.

Before pursuing Pilates full time, Elode spent many years working in marketing, an experience that shaped the way she approaches teaching today. Learning how to understand clients’ needs and build meaningful relationships has become one of her greatest strengths as an instructor, especially when teaching private sessions where every lesson can be tailored to the individual.

Studying the Classical Method transformed not only the way she teaches but also the way she moves. She feels stronger and fitter than ever before and values having a deep understanding of the fundamentals, giving her the confidence and versatility to teach a wide range of clients.

The greatest challenge throughout the Comprehensive program was the long-term commitment. Staying motivated over many months required consistency and dedication, but she says every step of the journey was well worth it.

After years of working behind a computer, Elode knew she wanted a career that kept her moving and connected with others. The Comprehensive program became the foundation for that transition, providing the structure and quality of the Classical Method that she believes creates a strong framework for any instructor to build upon.

As she begins this next chapter, Elode is most excited to continue growing her practice, work with a diverse range of clients, and keep expanding her skills as a teacher.

Please join us in congratulating Elode on this incredible achievement and welcoming her into the Power Pilates global community! 👏✨
