Originally from France, Mylène started in the fitness industry by teaching Aerobic classes in 1982, at the tender age of 20!

She first came to the US in 1985 via San Diego, where she taught Aerobics, Stretching and Strength group classes, and also started as a Personal Trainer.

Mylène discovered the Pilates method in 1994 while being a guest teacher at the Rancho La Puerta. In 2001, she enrolled in the Fletcher Pilates Program of Studies, graduating in 2002.

She enjoys sharing her love of movement with her clients, many of whom have become long time friends, and working at Swan Pilates has revived her excitement for movement exploration and networking with her colleagues, which benefits all.

During the first year of the pandemic, she studied Whole Food Plant Based Nutrition at eCornell Unitersity, Pilates for scoliosis, and many other online classes in both movement/Pilates and nutrition.
