Lena Zerbinopoulos

Lena is the founder of My Pilates Studio, a brand that values community, and empowers movement in all bodies. She believes in keeping classes small and loves working one-on-one with students.



With twenty years' experience helping small businesses with their accounting needs, in the midst of navigating a chronic condition, Lena shifted her focus to helping others fall in love with movement, like she did.

In 2016, after years of struggling with chronic pain, Lena was diagnosed with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder that requires a dedication to building and maintaining strength, stability and balanced muscle development. Reformer Pilates helps protect your joints and provides lots of feedback while building overall strength.

Best known for her calming energy, Lena has shared her passion for Pilates within her hometown and Bostonians alike. She is also a mother to two adult boys and lives with her husband in New Hampshire.

Becky believes in teaching each individual and aligning the body, mind and spirit through movement.
