ABOUT NIKITA

Nikita is a former professional ballet dancer with the renowned Dance Theatre of Harlem and has over 15 years of experience teaching dance and movement. Her journey began in her youth, where she excelled as a track runner, competing in long jump and the 100-meter dash, and studied various dance forms, including African dance. Nikita discovered Pilates early in her dance career, recognizing its healing potential when she suffered multiple stress fractures in her tibia, partly due to imbalances in her body. Through Pilates, she was able to fully rehabilitate her injury and return to dance even stronger.

 

Today, Nikita works with individuals from all walks of life, including new mothers, pre- and post-natal clients, office workers, those recovering from injuries, and more. In addition to teaching Pilates, she also shares her love for ballet and specializes in Pilates for athletes and dancers, working with clients ranging from professional NFL football players to basketball players. Passionate about the transformative power of Pilates, Nikita is dedicated to helping each client achieve their unique health goals. Her teaching style is energetic and focused, emphasizing strength, balance, stability, and precision.
