Elizabeth Du Val
Elizabeth Du Val danced professionally for over 15 years, using Pilates to fine tune her dancing. She started teaching mat classes while still dancing in '91, and has taught people of all ages, manner of injuries, and ambitions in a variety of places. She still returns to the Bay Area every summer to teach Pilates mat and reformer in several studios, such as Berkeley Ballet Theatre. While she has a foundation in classical Pilates, she also has a mat certification in Physical Mind, and a reformer certification in the Stott style. Her class 
focuses on slow controlled movement, alignment, and precision in order to maximize each exercise.
