Isabella Stansbury
Personal Trainer – Pilates Instructor
Isabella brings a grounded, relatable approach to training. She focuses on trust, real connection, and long-term results. Rather than presenting herself as perfect or all-knowing, she meets clients where they are and makes fitness approachable and sustainable. Clients quickly feel like they’re training with someone who understands them because they are.
Whether she’s talking about her favorite dessert (ice cream), chatting about her rescue pup Theo, or walking someone through a new strength movement, Isabella shows up as both a coach and a consistent presence in her clients’ lives. She believes in building relationships that last and in helping people find lifelong fitness habits they can carry through every stage of life.

Training Style & Focus
Isabella’s programming blends corrective exercise, Pilates foundations, and strength training to support joint health, core function, and long-term performance. Her focus is always on resilience. It’s not just about short-term wins.
She believes that every client, regardless of age or background, should train with their future self in mind. Whether that means reducing back pain, improving posture, or feeling confident in a strapless dress, Isabella builds programs that are tailored, thoughtful, and rooted in science-backed progressions.
Having started her career in Pilates and barre before transitioning to heavier strength work, she now combines those worlds. It’s not uncommon for a client who usually lifts heavy to suddenly find themselves doing a single-leg bridge or deep core work. Isabella uses what’s best for the body in front of her.
Specialties: Strength, Mobility, and Pre/Postnatal Support
Isabella blends strength training, mobility work, and pre/postnatal fitness into an approach that supports both short-term performance and long-term health. Her background in Pilates and corrective exercise gives her a deep understanding of core stability and joint function. At the same time, her experience with strength training helps clients build resilience and confidence.
She works frequently with expectant and new mothers, helping them train safely and feel empowered through every phase of pregnancy and recovery. Whether it’s a client returning to fitness after childbirth or someone managing chronic back pain, Isabella meets each person where they are and builds a program to move them forward.
Clients often seek her out for pre/postnatal training, joint-friendly mobility programming, and progressive strength coaching. She also welcomes anyone looking for a thoughtful and supportive training experience.
What to Expect in a Session
Isabella’s sessions are planned and purposeful but always adaptable. She brings a calm, conversational energy to the session while keeping clients focused on their goals. Sessions often begin with activation or mobility drills and move into strength-based work, layering in technique, challenge, and progress tracking.
Clients appreciate that she explains the “why” behind every movement. Her programming is always evolving based on her continued learning. From new certifications to books she’s reading, clients benefit from current best practices without being overwhelmed.
Client Highlights
Clients say Isabella pushes them to do things they’d never try on their own. Whether that’s lifting heavier, focusing on form, or trying something outside their comfort zone, they feel supported and encouraged every step of the way.
She’s especially known for pointing out the progress clients might overlook themselves. From carrying groceries upstairs more easily to hitting a personal best on a lift, Isabella makes sure those wins are seen and celebrated.
“I love telling my clients to go home and brag, especially the women who’ve never lifted before. That’s a big deal.” – Isabella
