“I’ve been taking both online and in-studio Pilates classes with Yeliz since 2022, and I can confidently say she is the most detail-oriented and thoughtful instructor I’ve ever worked with. She genuinely cares about every student in the room, constantly observing, correcting posture, and making sure each movement is performed safely and effectively. Her online mat classes are just as impactful as her studio sessions, which has been a lifesaver on busy weeks for me. Beyond Pilates, her stretching classes have made an enormous difference for me. These are not generic yoga-style stretches. Every move is intentional and clearly planned to complement that week’s workouts and relieve the most relevant muscle groups. When I first started with Yeliz, I was running frequently and rarely stretching, which left me stiff and uncomfortable. After my first stretching class, I remember feeling so light and relieved like I was walking on the moon. Over time, I’ve gained real strength and core stability through her Pilates classes, and my posture has improved noticeably. I wholeheartedly recommend Yeliz to anyone looking for a highly skilled instructor who is attentive, precise, and truly invested in her students’ progress.”

“Yeliz has helped me understand my physiology and how to engage the right muscles correctly. I feel more resilient and less prone to injury, which gives me the confidence to push myself further without fear. Yeliz is hands down one of the most knowledgeable instructors I’ve trained with after trying several others. Her classes are challenging—and they deliver real results.”

“Working with Yeliz provides for a Pilates experience, and an overall fitness experience, that really is one-of-a-kind, truly exceptional. Yeliz truly took the time to evaluate my needs, both by listening closely and by observing me in motion. She asked incredibly insightful questions and made me feel like she knew exactly which aspects of movement and flexibility I needed help to develop. I’ve worked with Yeliz both in individual sessions and in group classes; even in the group classes her individualized insights, observations and coaching allow each participant to maximize the benefit from the class experience. I can feel the progress I’ve made throughout my body – I just feel better, stronger, more balanced, more flexible. Yeliz has really raised the bar for me in terms of expectations from fitness instructors – this type of personalized training is very rare indeed.”

“Training weekly with Master Pilates instructor Yeliz Dingler these past two years has been transformational. Her one-on-one sessions hone in on my body’s needs in a way that group lessons cannot, as she tailors each hour to my specific areas that need extra attention, be it my back (sore from boot camp) or my plantar fasciitis. I always walk out of The Alignist feeling better, like my body has been stretched and made stronger. Pilates is an amazing exercise for core strength, vitally important as we age, thus I recommend it to everyone! I have seen a transformation in my body thanks to Yeliz, and it has impacted all my other workouts and daily life in the most positive way.”

“My name is Marian, and I am a physician and life-long amateur athlete. I am thrilled to be working with Yeliz who offers training in an elevated form of Pilates. Yeliz brings decades of experience as a professional dancer and as an expert Pilates instructor. She astutely evaluates physical form and musculoskeletal function, and she intervenes throughout instruction to offer adjustments, alignments,
and accommodations to meet the individual student’s needs. No two classes are the same. She is the most attentive and knowledgeable coach I have ever trained with. In three short months of Pilates Yeliz, I have gained strength, increased awareness of my body mechanics, and importantly, as a 60 year-old athlete, I have avoided injury. Truly I am thrilled to be working with you!!”

“Yeliz brings a rare combination of deep technical knowledge and genuine caring to every Pilates session. Her command of the technical aspects of Pilates and proper body movement is evident in the way she can quickly identify subtle imbalances and offer precise cues that help in improved body alignment and much smoother movement.
Yeliz has also been instrumental in helping me rehab from sports injuries. This expertise has been invaluable. She builds carefully structured programs that protect vulnerable areas while progressively restoring stability, strength, and confidence, so each phase feels appropriately challenging but never risky. Her eye for alignment and movement quality means every exercise has a clear purpose, and she is quick to modify when something doesn’t serve the body that day.
Beyond the technical side, she creates an environment that feels safe, encouraging, and is highly individualized, which makes it much easier to consistently attend her sessions.”

“Yeliz has been my Pilates and Stretching instructor for 6+ years. I love her because she tells me when I
am doing well but gently corrects me when I am making mistakes. Because of her, I am in better shape.
Yeliz trains people at all levels, whether advanced or “basic” like me. I love Yeliz!!”

“Yeliz is truly an incredible Pilates instructor, whether in private sessions or group classes. She took the time to really understand my body and designed each session around what I needed. Her ability to spot alignment issues and correct them has completely changed how I move and feel day to day. Thanks to Yeliz, I feel stronger, more flexible, and more balanced than ever.”
