About Martin

My introduction to Pilates was in 2019 when I met my wife and legendary Pilates teacher Wanda Bouvier, who taught me the original Contrology Method on the Reformer. After years of dialysis and a kidney transplant, Pilates restored my body and mind to a new level of health and wellbeing. I hold a Doctorate in music performance and am an award-winning classical performer, conductor, and former music professor. In 2022, I decided to use my 20 years of music teaching skills to pursue a career as a Pilates instructor. My teacher education at Club Pilates Old Metarie with Master Trainer Alicia Jerome on all Pilates equipment has elevated my teaching skills and personal practice to a new level of skill and capability. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to help our members gain more awareness, strength, and confidence in their bodies. As Joseph Pilates said, “Movement heals.”
