Marilyn O’Connor

Pilates Instructor

Born and raised in New York, I made the move to Tampa, Florida in 2024 and quickly fell in love with the balance of sunshine, community, and wellness-focused living.

By day, I’m a full-time accountant with two master’s degrees in Finance and Accounting, but my passion for movement and health led me to begin teaching Pilates in the summer of 2025.

I currently teach reformer classes at Bodybar Pilates, where I love helping clients build strength, confidence, and a deeper connection to their bodies.

Health and wellness have always been a huge part of my life, and I’m passionate about empowering others to show up for themselves, celebrate progress (big or small), and feel proud after every class.

Outside the studio, I’m extremely family-oriented and believe that balance, consistency, and community are the foundation of a strong, healthy life.
