Kerri Bender with her mentor Romana and student Jim Buckley

“Two years ago Kerri Bender introduced me to the joy of Pilates. After my first session, I was destined to embrace the Pilates lifestyle as my own. Kerri is not only my Pilates Instructor, she is also my Trainer since I entered the Apprentice Program nearly one year ago. I can honestly say there were times I wanted to give up, yet Kerri in her typical fashion told me to ‘get over myself’ and that ‘nobody said it was going to be easy.’ She was right. It’s not easy, yet it’s so incredibly rewarding and learning under Kerri’s direction is going to make me the best possible instructor who not only knows the work of Joseph Pilates but also feels it from within the core. Kerri Bender has trained with the best of the best in Romana’s Pilates and I am honored to be able to learn from her. She is professional, approachable and hard-core. I highly recommend Kerri Bender as both a Pilates Instructor and if you intend to go through the Apprenticeship Program of Romana’s Pilates. Pilates is hard, rewarding work and it takes a remarkable instructor to get through the Program. Kerri, thank you for your instruction, your support, your guidance and your friendship. I would not have passed my Apprenticeship Exams without you!”
