Mat Pilates with Chloe Bigelow

Chloe Bigelow (she/her) is a native of Chicagoland, where she began her pre-professional dance and Pilates training. During this time, she acquired knowledge from instructors across programs such as the Lou Conte Dance Studio Scholarship Program (directed by [dec.] Claire Bataille), Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, and the San Francisco Conservatory of Dance. It was at LCDS in 2010 where her initial love of Pilates began. While finishing the Scholarship Program, Chloe joined Khecari as cast member in 2015, and Cerqua Rivera as performing apprentice in 2016. While performing professionally, Chloe freelanced with Stephanie Martinez Choreography both administratively and creatively from 2017-2019. She also taught dance to Kindergarten to Adult at Chicago Ballet Center.  After two pivotal ACL reconstructions, pre- and mid-pandemic, Chloe chose to enter healthcare in 2020 as rehabilitation aide at Athletico Physical Therapy - East Bank Club. Chloe’s passion for uplifting others through movement education grew exponentially. In 2022, she entered the Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Certification Program, performing her final exam in 2024. Her teaching education is supplemented by Molly Shanahan/MadShak Spiral Body Techniques inaugural instructor cohort of 2023. With empathy, compassion, and positive accountability, Chloe looks forward to sharing her passions with all walks of life.
