Robin Sabella
Certified Instructor
Robin was introduced to Pilates through Gina 9 years ago and instantly fell in love with the practice. She loved the strength, control and flexibility she gained. 3 years ago, as her kids were getting older and it was time to take back some of the time she had devoted to being a mom, Gina reached out to Robin to see if she might be interested in becoming an instructor. It was the perfect fit, Robin attended Pilates Sports Center to obtain her certification and has since joined Gina at Canyon Pilates.
2018 proved to be a challenging year for Robin as she was diagnosed and underwent treatment for cancer. She credits her strength from Pilates as one of the reasons she was able to battle so fiercely and has since returned to work with a new found appreciation for each day, and her Canyon Pilates clients who supported and rooted for her throughout her battle!
