Training Experience
Personal
Born and raised in New Jersey until the age of 17, I moved to Texas in 1971 to attend Ambassador College and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Liberal Arts. Though my husband teases me about being a “Yankee,” I feel Texas is my true home. Brian and I have been married for over 20 years, and we have one daughter, two sons, and four grand-daughters.
I have always had an active lifestyle but especially fell in love with pumping iron, running and step aerobics in my early 30’s. I feel exercising is fun and feel very fortunate to be able to fulfill my life’s passion of not only staying healthy but helping others achieve their health/fitness goals.

The love of movement led Stacie Walker to Pilates as a student of the method almost 15 years ago. Because of her love of training, she became a Pilates instructor and has been with Balance Tyler for 2 years. As an instructor, Stacie combines her two passions: movement and her love of teaching.
Stacie’s early classical training as a ballerina gives her a deep understanding of the principles of movement that are the foundation of the Pilates method. She uses her knowledge to help clients achieve their physical goals.
