About Me
My name is Zola Williams
I am:
A mom.
A dancer.
A Pilates instructor.
A published author.
I'm an East Coast girl born and raised in the suburbs of Washington, DC. My mom put me in a dance class when I was 5 years old, and it just stuck. I graduated from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia as a ballet major. Since then, I’ve been so fortunate to have a flourishing career in theatre, movies, TV, and commercials. Some credits include:
The Lion King
Black Panther
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
Avengers: Infinity War
commercials for Sprite and Lexus
In 2013, I received my comprehensive Pilates certification from the Equinox Pilates Training Institute. This includes learning to teach on all Pilates apparatus. I’ve been lucky to teach private clients and classes all over the country. I currently teach privates and group classes at two studios In Los Angeles. Contact me if you're interested in taking a session with me.
I love bringing the joy and benefits of Pilates to all and it was my mission to provide classes on a free platform (YouTube). So join me on this journey of Pilates and life!
