In his mid-thirties Todd struggled with chronic back problems and found temporary relief through chiropractic visits. Upon discovering the benefits of Pilates for back health, he gave it a try and experienced a complete transformation—his body became longer, leaner, sculpted, and defined. Impressed with the results, Todd became a Pilates instructor, starting with training from Power Pilates in 2004.
Developing his unique ToddPilates approach in 2004, Todd created a fun, music-infused Pilates method incorporating strength, flexibility, and cardio elements, suitable for all levels. Todd aimed to make Pilates more accessible by devising a business model to offer affordable classes, giving rise to "Pilates for the people."
With over 20 years of experience, Todd has taught 8,000+ classes, establishing a successful Pilates business that prioritizes fun and affordability. His journey includes teaching in gyms and studios before opening his independent South Austin studio in 2012, where he continues to share his valuable Pilates expertise with a thriving community of happy customers.
