Bio

Originally from Seattle, Bonnie Sessions grew up in the heart of the fitness industry: her father owned and operated a chain of athletic clubs. That experience propelled her on a career path dedicated to health and working with people; first as a surgical assistant, then as a bicycle store manager and eventually as the founder of a fitness equipment business. In 1991, she graduated with a specialization in fitness and became an ACE Certified Personal trainer the same year.Following her heart to California, Bonnie opened a personal training studio and pioneered the first Pilates studio in Ventura California in 1996, which she successfully operated for a number of years. Her meeting with BASI founder Rael Isacowitz in 2002 was a turning point in her career. Following an intense internship with Rael, Bonnie joined the elite team of faculty teaching the BASI approach to Pilates around the world. As a competitive swimmer, racing cyclist and triathlon competitor, Bonnie continues to strive for self-improvement. In addition to being a BASI Senior Faculty member, she heads up the Pilates Program at the Equilibrium Balance Performance Physical Therapy Center in Ventura, California and runs her own busy practice in Ventura and the Ojai Valley.
