From Lauren…
I have made the difficult decision to leave XO. My last day will be Friday, June 5th. This has been one of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make, and I will truly miss every single one of you.
I have been teaching Pilates for more than 10 years, and I’ve realized it’s time for me to take a step back and give myself a break. This summer, I plan to focus on spending quality time with my family, traveling, and taking some time to reflect on what’s next for me personally and professionally.
I hope you all know how much joy this past year has brought me. Continuing friendships with longtime clients while also building new relationships and connections has meant more to me than I can put into words. Getting to teach something I’m so passionate about and watching so many of you fall in love with Pilates has been incredibly fulfilling. Hearing people say they’ve found something they can see themselves doing for the rest of their lives is one of the greatest gifts as an instructor.
Thank you for making this chapter so meaningful and rewarding for me. I’m incredibly grateful for the support, kindness, and trust so many of you have given me along the way. I also want to thank Jimmy and this amazing staff for becoming like a second family to me and for all of the love and support they’ve given me, and because of that...you’ll still be seeing me at the studio as a member - just not as an instructor. I look forward to seeing you all
