About the trainers:
Tara Heston - Owner/Trainer
Tara is a lifelong athlete and fitness enthusiast, with basketball as her lifelong passion. Along the way, injuries became part of her journey, making many traditional workouts painful. But Tara couldn’t imagine going a day without moving her body—and that’s when she discovered Pilates. Pilates didn’t just make working out enjoyable again—it made it painless.
Her passion for movement led her to pursue a comprehensive path in fitness: she earned her NASM Personal Training certification, completed over 500 hours of comprehensive Pilates training at Club Pilates, and expanded her expertise with certifications in TRX, Kettlebells, Percussive Therapy, Corrective Exercise, and Sound Bath.
Tara’s approach to teaching is fun, athletic, and safe. Having navigated her own injuries, she prioritizes form, alignment, and individualized modifications so every session is both effective and accessible.
Rian Borland - Lead Instructor
Rian is an award winning dancer and choreographer who fell in love with Pilates when she first got on a reformer at the age of 10.
After a knee injury ended her dance career, Rian continued her love of movement through Pilates, cardio barre, floor barre, and yoga. Rian decided to obtain her 500+ hour comprehensive Pilates certification through Club Pilates in order to motivate people to become passionate about moving their bodies and getting to their strongest core ever.
