Nicole Meadors Keegan | Studio Owner
As a little girl, Nicole was photographed, hanging upside down in her father's textbook "Let's Move." Hailing from two generations of coaches and a PhD exercise scientist, Nicole opened Pilates Hudson in 2003. Later, she partnered with Alex Auder and taught at West Village Yoga on Greenwich Street in NYC. With the luxury travel company, Escape to Shape, Nicole led retreat classes in Morocco, Colombia, Indonesia, Croatia, Mexico, and Italy. Nicole and Erica Gragg, owner of Escape to Shape, designed a wellness program in Hudson called Destination Detox. Nicole is influenced by Classical Pilates and Yoga; she has 23+ years experience and she’s a certified instructor. Currently, Nicole is enrolled in a Harvard Medical School certificate program for Wellness and Lifestyle coaching with Dr. Beth Frates. Her goal is to support others in adopting and sustaining healthy habits.
The studio in Hudson NY is equipped with Classical Pilates apparatus. 403 Warren is one of the most stunning and original grand rooms in Hudson. Like Joe’s studio, these old painted floors have seen the footwork of celebrities, artists, doctors, stone masons, mothers, fathers, carpenters, and kids.
Rebecca Williams Lead Instructor
Rebecca is a mother, healer, mentor, speaker and teacher. She has been involved in the mind-body field for over 20 years – a journey that dates back to when she was 17 and diagnosed with cancer. That diagnosis was the impetus for transformation, leading to a life rich in wholesome nutrition, body awareness and unshakeable understanding of the power that belief, intention and love have in the healing process. Rebecca’s life has been heavily influenced by this experience and has studied and taught a number of different modalities, grateful for each opportunity she has to share. She brings a 600 hour Comprehensive Pilates certification, as well as a strong and deep background as an intuitive healer to Hudson and the classes she teaches. Pictured left below.
Heather Dufek Instructor
Mom of 3, lover of movement, and always seeking growth, Heather personally found the pilates method very illuminating in both her mental and physical health, and became a Pilates instructor to open the doors for others to find strength in their body and mind.
As Romana Kryzanowska put it, “You can say what Pilates is in three words. Stretch with strength and control. And the control part is the most important because that makes you use your mind.”
In 2019 she completed her 600 hr comprehensive course at Just Like Om in NYC. Heathers classes are detailed and mindful of the traditional Pilates method seeking to teach with integrity as she remains a forever student. Your guided sessions with Heather will be tailored to your needs, and you will leave feeling invigorated in the mind and have a sense of lightness and power in the body. Pictured right above.
