Bio
Jaeeun discovered Pilates after trying various exercises to treat herniated discs following an accident. In addition to renewed health, she found an increased amount of energy as a result of doing Pilates. Filled with a desire to share her story (and this energy), Jaeeun opened her own studio in 2007. Three years later, she began providing instructor training through Merrithew’s STOTT PILATES® instructor training course.
As part of her continuing development to support a wide range of health and fitness enhancements for her clients, Jaeeun recently completed her master's degree and PhD in Sports Medicine.
