About the Owner
Ghitte’s passion for movement began with her background as a dancer. After an injury led her to step away from dance, she pursued a degree in Chemical Engineering at the University of South Carolina. Following graduation, she relocated to Houston, where she rediscovered her love for movement through teaching ballet, beginning in 2017.
Driven by a deep interest in health, fitness, and functional movement, Ghitte began her STOTT Pilates education in 2023. She is a comprehensively trained and certified instructor through Merrithew and STOTT, and hopes to keep expanding her knowledge and experience. Ghitte is dedicated to helping clients reach their goals—whether for rehabilitation or personal growth—through the transformative benefits of Pilates.
