WENDY BOROF, OWNER

Wendy Borof is a certified Pilates instructor and owner of Pilates Balance. She graduated from Santa Cruz University, California and immediately moved to Telluride in 1993 where she found herself captivated by the beauty and outdoor activities including climbing, skiing and running. 

She discovered Pilates in 2008 became certified through Balanced Body in 2009 and opened Pilates Balance shortly thereafter. Wendy went on to expand her knowledge of Pilates with Cara Reeser at the Kathy Grant Heritage Training Program in 2016. KGH Certification provides a deeper understanding of body mechanics. The experience instilled Wendy with a profound appreciation for the way in which the Pilates practice can heal the body and keep people active and fit for the rest of their lives. 

Wendy continues to study the details of functional movement with Cara Reeser and Jeremy Laverdure through their Movement Science Made Simple workshops.

“Some people come to me with physical challenges or injuries, others feel they need to cross train to improve their performance. The challenge is finding the perfect recipe of movement that balances each person’s strengths and weakness. Figuring out the nuances of an individual’s needs is what I find inspiring. And seeing them improve and gain confidence is my greatest reward.”

“Wendy has amazing insight. It is like she has x-ray vision into my body and my heart. She helps me embrace movement and and feel strong and healthy in my sports and my daily life.”

KELLI SCOVILLE

My name is Kelli Scoville. I moved to Telluride in 2020, but I have been a long time resident of Colorado, and I grew up in this beautiful state. I have 2 kids with my husband Peter, Emily 16 and Soren 13. We all love spending time in the mountains, biking, skiing, hiking and traveling.

I first was introduced to Pilates after my son was born, and I have been practicing for the past 13 years. I received my pilates certification in 2017, and teach all levels of reformer classes, chair & mat. Since receiving my certification I have been working with 2 studios in Colorado Springs and now with Wendy at Pilates Balance in Telluride.

I have a wide variety of clients that I have worked with over the years. I have helped rehab clients from injuries and worked with several athletes including members of the Olympic figure skating team.

I offer a series of private sessions and duets involving classical Pilates exercises performed on the reformer, Cadillac, chair & mat. Each exercise emphasizes breath, core conditioning, and body awareness. I pay special attention to alignment and form. Props – including foam rollers, therabands, weighted balls, the Pilates ring, and more – may be used to add challenge or assistance throughout the sessions. I look forward to working with you.

“I have become so much more aware of my postural habits. I have had huge revelations about where I hold tightness and stress in my body find myself being more mindful no matter what I am doing each day.”
