Jen Mccarter - owner, PHI and Balanced Body certified

Jen is the owner, trainer and Pilates Instructor at Pure Joy Pilates located in Prior Lake, MN. She opened the studio in November of 2017 with over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry.  

Pilates became a passion of Jen's in 2005 when she started her training with PHI Pilates based out of Philadelphia, PA.  To her, the Pilates method and fitness principals made sense! Since then, her style has stayed very traditional in comparison to larger studios and fitness facilities.  Jen's approach is to offer safe and effective Pilates training in a small group or individualized sessions to get the most out of the workout in addition to creating a balance of the body and mind!

Jen received her BS in Exercises Physiology from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in 2004 and holds certifications in both Mat and Reformer Pilates from PHI Pilates. In addition, she is certified through Balanced Body where she is currently enrolled in their Master Training Program
