About Francine

Originally from Albuquerque, New Mexico and born with allergies and asthma, Francine spent most of her childhood not being allowed to participate in sports.  When she turned 18 and went to college, she joined a gym and took Aerobics classes several times a week, along with biking to and from classes.  Francine discovered through exercise that she was able to overcome most of her allergies and her asthma improved. She then graduated with a BA in Finance and moved to San Diego for work.  She continued taking Aerobics and at that time got into Step Aerobics and started running.  She participated in several Half Marathons over a few years.  While living in San Diego she got married and worked in Finance and Procurement at two different big corporations, raised three girls and volunteered in PTA, Girl Scouts and National Charity League. In San Diego, she also worked in a pet store within Helen Woodward Adoptions Center, where she got to see thousands of dogs and cats find homes over a span of eight years.  The years of working out and having three children took a toll on her body.  She started having knee pains and sciatic issues which led her to have to go to Physical Therapy.  Upon finishing Physical Therapy, she discovered Mat Pilates being offered at her gym.  She ended up taking Mat Pilates classes for a few years before hearing about the Reformer.  Francine attended a trial class at Club Pilates in San Diego eight years ago and fell in love with it!  After doing Pilates several times a week at Club Pilates for several years, she knew she wanted to share her love and experience with others.  However, the timing was never right. That was until recently, when she and her Husband moved to Colorado Springs in March of 2024.  Soon after moving here, she joined Club Pilates and started The Teacher Training course.  Francine has enjoyed working with other instructors and her daughters throughout her training to become an instructor.  She is looking forward to teaching classes and sharing her experience and love of Pilates with others.
