about us

Meet the Founder of Dancing With Pilates, Elizabeth Szendrody. Elizabeth is a Professional Dancer in NYC touring the states with both a Ballet and a Modern dance company based in Manhattan.

Elizabeth found Pilates through dance conditioning classes, but after a spine injury is when she really latched onto it. Instead of spine surgery, Pilates became her method of rehab and recovery.

Elizabeth received her certification through Alycea Ungaro’s Real Pilates Teacher Training Program in Tribeca, NY. This makes Elizabeth a 3rd generation Instructor. Elizabeth is also Pre and Postnatal certified through Keren Feingold’s Mama Like Me Teacher Training Program.

In 2023, I began building my business, Dancing With Pilates. It began as Group Pilates classes in Prospect Park (Brooklyn, NY), to teaching Private clients online or in-person, to now having my first official space for DWP in Tribeca, NY. DWP has slowly grown and I am thrilled to announce our Grand Opening of the new space was held on March 1st, 2025.

The Pilates space is located inside the Flaweless House, which serves as both an events space and a Coworking Club. We are currently offering Group Pilates Classes, Private Pilates Sessions and Baby&Me Dance Fitness.

Today Elizabeth uses both her Dance and Pilates knowledge to help individuals like yourself to move throughout the day with mindfulness. Pilates is the guide to live life with optimal functional movement, strength training, and pain free lifestyle.
