About Fusion Pre & Post Natal Training
“The Pre & Post Natal course was amazing! I could have spent a whole week learning from Jennifer. I loved that we got to build the pelvic floor muscles with clay, that was so helpful. The whole weekend exceeded my expectations completely! I can’t wait to take another class with Jen. I really feel lucky that I’ve had the opportunity to learn from her.

About Fusion Pre & Post Natal Training
I attended your training in and was 5 months pregnant with my first child at the time. I just had my baby 3 weeks ago and wanted to say I found your pre & post natal Pilates training invaluable in my pregnancy, labor & delivery & even so far during my recovery! I believe your training is the main reason my pregnancy went so great. I just want to say thank you for creating such a great program. I have been using all the concepts we talked about in my mat classes with older women & have had great results. My students’ understanding of the work has really deepened since I returned from Asheville. I have added a Pre-natal class to my schedule at my studio & one of the doctors at my Ob/gyn’s office has asked me to give her some cards so that she can refer patients to my studio!
Thank you for a wonderful program. I hope to attend more of your certifications in the future.

Jennifer was wonderful. Several notches above any type of Pilates training I have had prior. I am 5 hours away, and am glad to know that excellent training/studios are this close by. (As opposed to New York and LA.) Her scope was specific to our needs, her presentation provided different methods of learning and was clear, unrushed, and open to discussion. Thank you.

About Fusion Pre & Post Natal Training
I just wanted to thank you for a great weekend of training. It was really informative and really made both Allison and I think so much more about the pelvic floor. I am so much more aware of what it happening with my own body and how to help others feel what I felt. I have never felt my transverse abdominals like I have this weekend. It even made me think about how to apply some of it to my current clients. Also your cuing was awesome. We love the “bunny tail”! We will definitely be back to do more trainings with you.

About Fusion Pre & Post Natal
Jen was AWESOME!!!! I learned so much about the pelvic floor, labor & delivery (maybe more than I wanted to know? – ha!), and how to help out my pregnant clients. I am so excited about implementing what I learned at my studio in Greensboro. I already have two classes set up to start in a few weeks!
A few things that Jen did really well and that I am already incorporating in my classes is her use of imagery, (wow, what a big difference that makes) and, her techniques to use the pelvic floor muscles in all the exercises.
I will definitely do another workshop with Jen.

About Fusion’s Balanced Body Chair/Barrel Training
Jennifer Gianni is an excellent instructor. She presents the material very efficiently and effectively without being intimidating. The course itself was wonderful. Having a background in exercise science, I chose Balanced Bodies because I think you use the perfect blend of science and dance. The programming stays true to the Pilates method but also allows for safety and an abundance of modifications.

About Fusion’s Balanced Body Mat Training
This course has been very helpful from the instruction to the manuals and practice test – it is a lot of material, but it was covered in a very thoughtful, clear way. I credit this to the extremely knowledgeable instructor who kept the pace reasonable while providing a lot of in depth analysis and hands-on application of not only the exercises, but cuing and how to translate that information into teaching – wonderful!

I have had many wonderful teachers, but Jennifer’s teaching of Mat 1 was unrivaled. In one workshop, Jennifer unified a diverse group and brought their understanding of the Pilates method to a much deeper level. Her teaching revealed her many years of exceptional training, her ability to lead her clients toward health and wellness through their Pilates practice, and her skill in inspiring a group of teachers and students to absorb the wealth of information she offered and to practice and to seek more. She is an exceptional resource in training the teachers of the present and the future.

Jennifer led a fantastic training seminar. I sent myself and one of my studio instructors this weekend and we are now both confident to build and teach a Pregnancy Pilates program at our studio to help condition and train women for their pregnancy and labor. Her information was thorough, practical and readily applicable to clients immediately upon completion of the course. On a side note, both my studio instructor and I are pregnant right now and it was an outstanding education for us both as we too are on our own pregnancy journeys!
