About Lauri Stricker
I am a PMA Certified classically trained Pilates Instructor. In addition, I have an MBA from the University of Denver. I have always dreamed of creating a business that would positively impact the lives of other people. The Evergreen Studio is my vision. After years as a Marketing Professional, I left my career and spent two years training before receiving my certification from Pilates of Boulder. I have practiced Pilates for six years and have studied with several master teachers. I am currently enrolled in the Masters Program at the Pilates Center in Boulder. My mission for the Evergreen Studio is simple: to maintain the integrity and excellence of Joseph Pilates' Method and to facilitate greater health and well-being in my clients. I have a long term interest in developing relationships with my clients and helping them in their pursuit of health and happiness.
My Approach
By clarifying your goals and creating a plan for success, I coach my clients to improve their strength & flexibility, and their overall self-image and well-being. I guide each client, giving precise verbal and tactile cues to insure optimal alignment, proper breathing, and safe and efficient movement. In addition, I help clients to consider their day to day activities and how they may enhance or diminish overall health. Through private, duet and group sessions, we will work together to realize your vision.

Maya Pingle
Maya Pingle, a native of Chicago who was also raised in India, began Pilates at the age of 12 through her ballet coach who was trained under Romana Kryzanowska. Maya performed professionally with ballet, modern and jazz companies, always dancing through her injuries and succeeding until a car accident in 1999. She returned to Pilates for rehabilitation after being told dance would be difficult in the future. Within six months, she began performing again, stronger that before and this time dancing with the Radio City Rockettes. Eight seasons later, Maya continues with Radio City as a dance captain and assistant choreographer. Maya's passion for Pilates lead her to attend and graduate from The Pilates Center in Boulder, Colorado. There she found the true meaning behind body, mind and spirit. Maya uses Pilates in her own dance movement, instruction and choreography, and draws upon her love of movement when teaching her clients. Maya has a bachelor of science from Indiana University in Ballet/Performance and Broadcast Journalism. She has been seen in numerous commercials and in a debut series on the WB.
