Pilates has helped Lynda navigate endometriosis, surgeries, car and boat accidents, and arthritis. She understands what it's like to manage chronic pain, because she does it for herself, staying pain-free and very functional with Pilates.

For 35 years, Lynda’s clients (including Donna Karan, Laurie Anderson, and Joe Walsh) have trusted her to help them get stronger and function better, with less pain. Former Financial Times travel editor Rahul Jacob says that Lynda is the best Pilates teacher and personal trainer he’s ever worked with. Lynda was a Master Teacher at Real Pilates for a decade, spent a few years at A-list Parrot Cay by COMO resort, and owned award-winning studios on Philadelphia's Main Line. She helps all of her clients feel and function better, and specializes in chronic back, neck, joint pain; osteoporosis; and diastasis recti.

Lynda lives in lower Manhattan with her husband of 30 years and their senior rescue dog, Juniper Peanut.

Lynda teaches at our Chelsea studio.
