Solana McGonagle

Solana is a comprehensively and classically trained Pilates instructor and dancer from Los Cabos, Mexico. She received her Comprehensive Pilates certification with Studio du Corps in Newport Beach, CA under Master Instructor Diane Diefenderfer and Laura Hanlon.

As a lifetime lover of movement in all its forms, Solana began her journey with Pilates as a way to connect deeper to her dance training. Through her practice she discovered that Pilates offered her the freedom to create strength, stability and awareness within her own body. She also discovered how healing and meditative Pilates can be when tuning into the mind to muscle connection that Pilates requires. Becoming an instructor became the natural next step in her journey.

Solana blends her experience as a professional dancer and her love for her Pilates training together to create sessions that tend to the individual and their personal needs, always with a focus on mindful and enriching movement. Her goal as an instructor is to help her clients achieve their goals they set for themselves and to instill a consistent practice that can help create balance and deeper awareness in their bodies. She is so excited to join the Greenpoint Pilates Studio Team!
