Jena L. Carty is a Pilates instructor certified through the Pilates Center in Boulder, Colorado. She completed the internationally recognized teachers training program in July of 2009, and in October completed the Pink Ribbon Program, which certified her as a Breast Cancer Post-Rehab Exercise Specialist.  In March 2010, she completed the Master Trainer Program for the Pink Ribbon, which enables her to train and certify other instructors.

Jena has had a lifelong, active interest in fitness and exercise, and is always on the lookout for new physical challenges. Those challenges can range from training for competitive events to weekend soccer games with her nieces.  When she decided to leave the corporate world, she embraced the challenge of Pilates as a path to greater self-awareness and happiness in her life.

Prior to completing her Pilates instructor certification, Jena was Regional Operations Manager for Sona MedSpa. She served as business consultant to 15 Sona centers where she worked with owners, managers, sales consultants and medical staff to help improve all aspects of the centers' business performance. In her extensive professional travel around the United States and in working with a broad cross-section of people, Jena gained an abiding appreciation of how vital exercise, nutrition and balance are to living a life of abundant good health.

The youngest of five children, Jena has always channeled her great compassion into helping others. As a Pilates instructor, she seeks to enrich the lives of her clients by guiding them toward deeper understanding of the connection between mind, body and spirit.
