WHO WE ARE

Pamela Mader Lessenberry, NCPT

Pamela's passion is Pilates. A former journalist and orthopaedic implant specialist, she wrestled with her own debilitating lumbar back injury after years of dancing and teaching dance and group fitness. The only technique she found to control her pain was Pilates. To her amazement, it also helped her build incredible strength, better posture and ease of movement. She now passionately teaches classes and trains private clients to improve their own physical and mental well-being. Although her biggest fans are her four children, she has scores of happy clients and students who have benefitted from her teaching. Finding her vocation in service through movement, she now teaches full-time at several locations but focuses her energies at Carriage House Pilates.

Pamela is an NCPT (Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher).  She is Polestar Studio certified, Peak Mat certified, and graduated from Kathi Ross Nash’s Professional Pilates Advanced Teacher Training Program in 2019.  Her biggest influence and mentor is world-renowned Pilates teacher Sonjé Mayo, who actually studied under Joseph Pilates.

Susan Stanton, Pilates Trainer

Susan has experienced the unmatched benefits of Pilates resistance training in her quest to stay fit and strong. As a dancer and yoga practitioner, she has always been athletic, but being faced with multiple injuries over the years, she discovered how Pilates has the power to heal.  She understands how Pilates challenges the body safely.  “Pilates increases symmetrical strength, stamina, flexibility and coordination and is unlike any other system or exercise program.”

Susan began her Pilates journey in Atlanta, after growing up in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.  She began taking Pilates classes to balance out a successful career in corporate sales while teaching dance.  After moving to Nashville, she became Pilates Mat-certified by Balanced Body in 2016 and began studying under world-famous Sonjé Mayo.  Sonje’s classical Pilates knowledge inspired her to study further, and she recently graduated from the Real Pilates Teacher Training program at Pilates Fit Studio in Louisville.  With an unwavering desire to maintain an active lifestyle for herself and her students, she empowers our clients to try new things, work hard and trust the process.  We welcome her talents to Carriage House Pilates! 

Susan is such a popular instructor that she is in demand in Pilates studios in Glasgow, Bowling Green and Nashville.  In addition to a lifetime of formal dance training and Pilates, Susan has been practicing yoga for 25+ years and is an RYT-200 hr. yoga instructor.
