Arlene Corcoran-Studio Owner and Master Instructor

Arlene came to Pilates and her current Myofascial practice after a lifetime of battling with chronic pain.  Through her work she has been able not only to manage, but to overcome what was once a debilitating struggle.  She received her Pilates education through The Kane School in New York City (now Kinected Pilates Center) in 2006, and opened her own studio here in Tucson in 2007. Since starting her own practice, Arlene has studied with Brent Anderson, Marie Jose Blom, Karen Clippinger, Amy Taylor Alpers, Anna Marie Vitali and many others.  In addition to Classic Pilates Equipment & Mat, Arlene’s primary training focused on Anatomy and Special Needs/Special Populations.  This expanded knowledge allowed her to fully understand how she had rid herself of her lifetime pain patterns and achieved true fitness and health. This history informs her eclectic program at The Belly Studio to this day as she continues her 15 year long study of the Fascial Matrix.
