Mackenzie Cherry

Certified Pilates and Yoga Instructor

Mackenzie has over 20 years of teaching experience in both yoga and Pilates. Her mat pilates classes at Niche have a yoga flair and she has expanded her repertoire to include reformer classes. Mackenzie has been practicing Pilates on and off for years, and under the encouragement of Kimber McQueen of Balance Pilates, she decided to take the Instructor training for Mat and Reformer. She finished her Mat training at the beginning of 2020 under LeeAnn Silvey and she finished private Reformer training with Kimber in the spring of 2020. She completed Niche Instructor Training in 2023.

Three words that describe her classes? Focused, calm, and lengthening. Her goal is for every client to leave class with a stronger sense of mind-body awareness. A few of her favorite things: teaching extension work (and the hundreds!), using the box as a prop, listening to peaceful guitar during class, and enjoying yoga in the morning followed by pool time in the afternoon for self-care.
