Leslie Nolte

Leslie opened Pilates at Nolte in 2009 to answer the corridor's need for a dedicated Pilates studio. A Pilates devotee for over 12 years, Leslie earned her STOTT Pilates instructor certification in 2011. She's known for her smile, her enthusiasm, and her sincere desire to see everyone who walks in the door of her studio succeed. She loves watching Pilates clients discover how dramatically their shape can change in a few months.

Leslie is an award winning dancer and choreography who earned her BFA in Dance at the University of Iowa. She founded the Nolte Academy of Dance in 2000, which has grown into the region's most awarded dance studio. She is an active supporter of the Iowa City/Coralville community, where she lives with her husband, Mark Nolte, and five children.
