Wendy Ellis

Owner/Professional Dancer/Adjunct Dance Professor/ Certified Pilates Instructor /Movement Specialist

My movement journey began at an early age and has evolved into over three decades of sustained as a professional dancer, educator, and movement specialist. I hold both a BA and MFA in Dance, and my work is deeply informed by an ongoing commitment to movement, somatic education, and embodied research. Alongside my dance career, I have dedicated myself to the Pilates Method, earning advanced Pilates certification as well as additional certifications and licensure through the Fletcher Method, Balanced Body, and extensive studies in biomechanics.

I am driven by the transformative potential of movement as both an artistic and pedagogical practice. This led me to found Studio Kinetics, a space where Pilates, dance, and complementary movement modalities intersect. My work centers on cultivating kinesthetic awareness, refining motor intelligence, and supporting functional alignment through individualized, research-informed programming. I emphasize correct form and efficient movement patterns to optimize physical performance, longevity, and injury prevention across diverse bodies and abilities.

My tailored Pilates programs—offered in private and small-group settings—support clients navigating post-surgical rehabilitation and neurological or structural conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, scoliosis, and other movement-related challenges. This work is grounded in somatic Pilates even dance movement principles that prioritize sensation, adaptability, and embodied learning as essential tools for healing and sustainable movement practice.

In parallel, I collaborate with elite athletes, including MLB Angels players, NFL athletes, Olympic sprinters, gymnasts, and professional dancers, to elevate and sustain peak performance. These partnerships allow me to bridge high-level athletic training with dance-based intelligence, emphasizing precision, efficiency, and resilience through embodied technique.

I remain deeply engaged in the Phoenix dance community as a performer, educator, and arts leader. I serve on the Board of Third Space Dance Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to contemporary dance, and I also direct my own company, Align Dance Theater, through which I continue to explore movement as an expressive, interdisciplinary practice.

At the core of my work is a passion for mentorship and pedagogy. I am committed to guiding aspiring Pilates instructors and movement practitioners toward thoughtful, informed, and embodied teaching practices. My ongoing goal is to contribute to a culture of movement education that values intelligence of the body, interdisciplinary dialogue, and the profound capacity of movement to inform, heal, and inspire.
