Christi Price (Founder, Owner and Instructor)

Christi, our lead instructor at Dancilates, a renowned Pilates studio in Knoxville, TN, is fully certified in Pilates and dance conditioning. She holds a degree in Pilates and Dance Conditioning from Orange Coast College in Southern California and is certified to instruct on all forms of Pilates equipment and reformers.

Before becoming an esteemed instructor in Knoxville, TN, Christi pursued her dream of becoming a professional dancer, performing for companies such as Disney, MTV, Telemundo, TBN, and even Bibleman. From 1999 to 2006, she created and directed dance groups at Melodyland/Healing Word in Anaheim, CA.

After her career as a professional dancer, Christi shifted her focus towards choreography, conditioning, and training, aiming to help others achieve holistic body healing. She merged her love for dance and the health benefits of Pilates to craft an original program, Dancilates. This program is designed to bolster dancers' strength, conditioning, flexibility, and balance utilizing the Pilates method, making it a popular choice in Knoxville, TN.

Throughout her career, Christi has taught, trained, and choreographed at various studios, including her own in Frisco, TX, as well as conventions, churches, and intensives in California, Texas, and internationally.

In addition to her regular classes, Christi also leads Healing Pilates Mat Classes for women's organizations, churches, and retreats. These classes focus on complete body healing through the mind, body, and spirit connection, fostering a comprehensive wellness approach, not unlike the one found in our Pilates classes in Knoxville, TN.

When not guiding our Pilates classes in Knoxville, Christi enjoys spending time with family and friends, traveling, and visiting the beach. She and her husband, Jeff, have two children and currently reside in Knoxville, TN.
