Our Pilates Team
Issemathe “Isma” Caruso
Owner • Pilates Instructor • BinRuso LLC – The Pilates Station
My name is Issemathe Caruso, but most people know me as Isma. I am originally from Haiti, and I have always loved fitness and movement. Before Pilates, I was an avid runner until my rheumatoid arthritis became more difficult physically. Pilates first started as part of my own healing journey. I became a client, fell in love with the method, completed Pilates teacher training, and eventually took over ownership of The Pilates Station in Vail on June 18, 2021.
Before Pilates, I worked as a nurse and was also a stay-at-home mom. My healthcare background, personal experiences, and passion for movement all influence the way I teach today. I truly love group classes and the community they create, but over time, I realized my heart is really in private and semi-private Pilates. It feels more personal and more intimate, and I see clients getting faster results and feeling happier because they receive more individualized attention and support.
Pilates has changed my life mentally, physically, and spiritually. After God, Pilates truly helped save me during some very difficult times in my life, and I feel incredibly grateful that I now get to help others through movement as well.
