About ALFA pilates

I am Angela Luem, owner and instructor at ALFA Pilates in Hiram, ME.

As a life long mover, Pilates was a natural fit. I’ve been dancing since I was a child and after a professional dance career was drawn to the form. My training is with Jen Golden (Pilates Chicago), Barb Katz (Power Pilates), Madeline Black Movement Method (Series 1 and 2), Cara Reeser (Movement Science Made Simple and The Heritage Training graduate), The Center for Women’s Health and The Neuro Studio. I am a National Certified Pilates Teacher (PMA). I have experience working with many different populations.

I help my clients understand the body they live in. I look at the whole body in front of me through the lens of biotensegrity using the Pilates repertoire and movement principles to achieve clients physical goals. Each session is different. It is my goal to empower you to move easier and effortlessly through your life.

Let me help you understand yourself better.
