Instructor: Laura Thomas
Laura is a Certified Comprehensive Pilates Instructor, who started her foundational training at Blue Moon Pilates in Orange County, where she obtained her Comprehensive Certification from Balanced Body.
She has expanded her expertise in Classical Pilates through private mentorship with Nicole Martin at Ritual Pilates in San Diego, and through workshops with Daniela Escobar at Westwood Pilates in Los Angeles. Most recently, Laura has begun training with faculty members of Vintage Pilates in Los Angeles.
Laura grew up as a competitive dancer, and as an adult was drawn to Pilates due to the familiarity of how she conditioned when she was dancing. When dancing competitively Laura was drawn specifically to Jazz and Tap, and even participated in the Rockette Summer Intensive in New York. Laura has much affection and appreciation for the arts, and believes that Ballet is fundamental in any dance pursuit. Laura is excited to be offering Pilates at Boulder Ballet, and plans to strengthen dancers and non-dancers in a safe, supportive, and fun environment.

Dress Code
Dancers are encouraged to wear non-restrictive clothes they feel comfortable moving in that allow the instructor to see alignment and form for safety. Fitted clothes, including dance or workout clothing, are most suitable. Ballet shoes are recommended, but not required. Instead of ballet shoes, please dance in bare feet (no socks, please). Labeled water bottles are highly suggested.
Pet policy
Animals, except those to aid patrons with disabilities, are not permitted in the Dairy or Boulder Ballet Studios and cannot be left unattended on the property. Due to the risk of damage to the Marley dance floor, any service animal must remain leashed and in a carrier, dog bed, or on a blanket.
