MEET JEANETTE RORICK

Jeanette’s path to healing and transformation began at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, where she moved to New York City to study musical theatre performance. She went on to perform in Off-Broadway and regional theatre, bringing discipline, artistry, and a deep understanding of the body into her work. When she transitioned out of dancing full time, Jeanette discovered Pilates as a new foundation, one that would shape the next chapter of her life. She trained through the Kane School of Core Integration and has now spent over twenty years helping clients reconnect to their bodies through intentional, intelligent movement.

As an entrepreneur, Jeanette founded Self Centered Pilates, LLC in New York City, building a thriving in-home Pilates business before relocating to California, where she owned and operated Core Pilates Sausalito for a decade. After the challenges of COVID forced her to close her physical studio, she pivoted online, continuing to serve clients around the world.

In 2018, Jeanette began training students to become Pilates instructors and wrote her first Pilates teacher training manual. She later became certified as a Master Pilates Trainer and, alongside a dear colleague, co-developed a second edition of her teacher training manual that has since been licensed to studios in California and Taiwan. She continues to teach from her manual today, mentoring and inspiring the next generation of Pilates teachers.

Her work has evolved beyond fitness into something far more profound: supporting women in rebuilding trust with their bodies and reclaiming their strength from the inside out.

A survivor of an abusive marriage, Jeanette now channels her lived experience into her healing work. Through her program, Heal to the Core, she helps moms, especially those leaving narcissistic or abusive relationships, break free from survival mode and step into true regulation, resilience, and self-leadership. By integrating Pilates with bioenergetic reprogramming, Jeanette offers a powerful, body-based approach to lasting transformation, guiding women not just to recover, but to rise.
