Renee Keller has been actively and passionately involved in teaching fitness for over 30 years. She started taking Pilates in 2006 to support a friend fighting breast cancer.  She quickly realized that it was the perfect cross training regime to strengthen, tone, and stretch her body as well as focus her mind.  Renee received her Pilates mat certifications from both the PhysicalMind Institute and Balanced Body University (BBU) in 2007 and completed her comprehensive Pilates certification through BBU in 2008.  Renee has taken numerous advanced training in special conditions which includes scoliosis, pregnancy, osteoporosis, low back issues (disk herniation, spondylolisthesis, stenosis, etc), knees, and shoulders.  Prior to teaching at Yoga La Vie, Renee worked at a physical therapy based studio in the U.S.  She loves sharing the benefits of Pilates and health with others.
