Spiral Studio Louisville

A Kentucky native, Briana returned to the area in 2020, bringing with her over 25 years of movement teaching experience. Her background began in dance and evolved through teaching fitness, yoga, and Pilates, as well as working in rehabilitation and research for spinal cord injuries, before specializing in the GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® methods. Briana is currently Kentucky’s only GYROTONIC® Pre-Trainer, meaning she is qualified to teach the first layer of teacher education within this rigorous movement education system. Her teaching is grounded in clarity, precision, and a deep respect for the body’s intelligence.

Briana holds a B.S. in Exercise Science and Sports Medicine from the University of Louisville and has worked extensively in both studio and clinical settings, including at Frazier Rehab and Neuroscience Center in spinal cord injury research and rehabilitation programs. She has also studied and taught at a high level nationally. Including completing Pilates teachers' teacher programs for 2 groups in NYC, including the Kane School at Kinected. Briana lived in Chicago from 2009 -2020 and during that time opened and managed a "top in the nation" Pilates and GYROTONIC studio in Burr Ridge inside of a Lifetime Fitness and then opened her own studio on Michigan Ave in the South Loop Chicago, she moved back to KY in Oct of 2020 while simultaneously trying to maintain the studio in Chicago but alas new Mom life and distance made it necessary to let go of that dream in 2021.

Her work is especially informed by experience supporting clients with neurological conditions, spinal cord injuries, cancer recovery, autoimmune conditions, and chronic pain. Briana’s sessions are thoughtful, effective, and deeply supportive, balancing technical precision with compassion and adaptability.

I’m especially excited to welcome Briana because her values around education, integrity, and ongoing learning align so closely with the vision of Spiral Studio Louisville. Briana is highly skilled, attentive, intuitive, warm and kind. I highly recommend trying a session with her.

Briana will begin teaching on January 8th and will be available Thursday mornings.
