Comprehensively Trained Pilates Instructor

Website Woman's Athletic Club of Chicago

Brief History:

Founded in 1898, the Woman’s Athletic Club is the first athletic club for women in America. The prestigious membership included prominent society and business names like McCormick, Ryerson and Swift. Members conceived of an oasis for women who sought a “retreat where health, grace and vigor can be restored”.

In 1929, the Club moved into its own building on North Michigan Avenue. In 1991 this architectural treasure, designed by renowned architect Philip B. Maher, received landmark status in recognition of its beautiful and historically significant exterior.

Members use its facilities for meetings, entertaining, wellness and lectures. Over the years, such diverse public figures as Rosalyn Carter, Cokie Roberts, Michael Frayn, Ogden Nash, Nan Kempner, Barbara Bush and Diane von Furstenburg have participated in Club programs.
