Draven

I’m Draven, the founder of Fire and Flow Pilates and your friendly neighborhood strength-obsessed, Pilates-loving, garden-digging instructor. I turned my own health around after being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, dove deep into nutrition, and never looked back. Now, I help other people do the same—by building muscle, moving with intention, and feeling powerful in their bodies.

My classes are where science meets sweat, and good vibes are non-negotiable. I’m all about workouts that actually work, without the fluff or the pressure. Outside the studio, you’ll find me getting my hands dirty in the garden, exploring new places, or sipping something delicious in the Texas sun.

 

Come flow with me—I promise it’ll be fun. Your body will thank you.

Stephanie has been helping people move, feel, and live better for over 20 years. With a Master of Science in Nutrition and STOTT Pilates certification, she’s all about blending science-backed movement with real-life vibes. Her classes focus on postural alignment, breath work, and fascia flow—perfect for anyone from postpartum mamas to weekend warriors chasing that performance edge.

She’ll challenge your core, fine-tune your form, and make you feel muscles you didn’t even know existed—all while keeping it supportive and down-to-earth.

When she’s off the reformer, you can find her tending her garden, collecting tiny food replicas (yes, really), or solving crimes alongside Law & Order reruns.

Book a class with Stephanie—you’ll feel stronger, move smarter, and even laugh a little along the way.

ANgela

Your F&F resident dog-obsessed, iced-chai-loving, Pilates powerhouse.

My love affair with low-impact movement started years ago with barre (my first fitness crush). I taught it off and on, but the moment I met the reformer? Game over. Total heart-eyes. Pilates had me hooked—body, mind, and core.

What started as a curiosity quickly became a full-blown passion. After a year of practicing, I dove into my reformer certification, and then added chair and barrel to my toolbox (working toward my comprehensive because, let’s be honest, I’m all in). I’m constantly amazed at how Pilates makes me feel—strong, flexible, mobile, and way more in sync with my body. It’s not just a workout, it’s a whole mood.

When I’m not in the studio, I’m probably home snuggling my dogs, losing at mahjong to Miranda (rude), or scouting out hidden gem thrift shops and brunch spots around the city. Got a Juiceland rec? Send it my way, I’m always down!

Catch me in class bringing that feel-good energy and creative class flows that hit just right. Let’s move, let’s breathe, and let’s get strong—together!

Emily

Certified Pilates pro. Former soccer star. Mom of girls who dance like nobody’s watching (because they are).

Emily is a comprehensively certified BASI Pilates instructor with a serious passion for helping clients feel strong, mobile, and totally in sync with their bodies. Her Pilates journey kicked off over a decade ago with mat work, but everything changed the moment she met the reformer. Instant love. Full commitment. No notes.

She kept showing up for her practice—even through her second pregnancy—because Pilates just works. It’s adaptable, powerful, and supports you through every phase of life (even the ones with no sleep and tiny humans yelling “snack!” every 5 minutes).

With 14 years of soccer and 5 years on the swim team under her belt, Emily knows what it means to challenge the body while playing the long game. She started teaching in 2023, inspired by the flexibility (literally and figuratively) that Pilates offers—especially helpful as a busy mom of young girls.

When she’s not leading a killer class, you’ll probably find her hanging at a brewery with her crew, catching a comedy show, or hosting a living room dance party with her girls. Bonus points if there’s a good playlist and snacks involved.

Peyton discovered Pilates when she was 16, and something about it just clicked… the movement, the focus, the way it made her feel strong and centered. It’s been her go-to ever since.

At Fire & Flow, Peyton is stepping into her journey as an Instructor-in-Training with a spark that everyone immediately notices.
