Taught by
Dr. Niia Bishop
A scholarship dancer, PhD, and the creator of Mamilates — one of the first Mommy & Me Pilates formats in the country — Dr. Bishop built this curriculum from lived experience, academic rigor, and two decades in maternal movement.
She doesn't teach what she read. She teaches what she discovered when Pilates healed the injury that years of professional dance left behind.
