Lindsey Chitwood

Lindsey, originally from Dallas, TX, has called Birmingham home for almost 20 years. Having always been an active person, she came to see and feel the benefits of Pilates after giving birth to twins. Her original goal was to use Pilates to rebuild the core strength that was necessary to manage the day-to-day physical demands of small children, but it wasn't long before she got hooked. Pilates gave the benefits of strength and eliminated the nagging low back and shoulder pain without the strain and stress of all the high impact workouts.

Lindsey was certified through Joel Crosby, a 2nd generation instructor of the Jay Grimes lineage, with Classical Pilates Education at his Vitality Method Studio, Duluth, GA in January of 2020. Since then she has completed over 150 hours of workshops and workouts with 1st and 2nd generation instructors and leaders in Pilates with different lineage backgrounds, like Kathi Ross-Nash, Sonje Mayo, and Blossom Leilani Crawford. Lindsey is also certified in Pilates Suspension Method (TRX) and Barre Above Method. Outside of Pilates, Lindsey is married with three children, serves as a community volunteer for several non-profits, and consults on small tech projects including website and database development.
