Angie Mitchell is the owner and Senior Pilates Instructor at Pilates Stance. A graduate of the renowned Romana’s Pilates International Training Program, she trained under Master Instructor Trainers Rhonda Celenza and Juanita Lopez. With over 15 years of teaching experience—including a decade as Regional Pilates Manager at Equinox—Angie brings both depth and leadership to her teaching. She is also NASM-certified and a Post-Rehabilitative Breast Cancer Exercise Specialist.
Maura Naughton is a Classically trained Pilates Instructor originally from LaGrange, IL. Maura’s journey into movement began with dance. After earning her B.S. in Dance Performance from Illinois State University, she spent years performing—including guest appearances at Yale and ISU—and teaching everything from ballet to improvisation.
When a physical therapist introduced her to Pilates to help prevent injuries and build core strength, Maura was hooked. Experiencing how the classical exercises transformed her own movement quality inspired her to share that gift with others. Since earning her first Mat certification in 2020, she has committed to deep, rigorous training, completing a comprehensive program in 2022 and advanced classical studies in 2024. Today, Maura uses her deep knowledge of dance and anatomy to empower her clients to move with ease, strength, and confidence in their everyday lives.
