Leslie Campbell Driesner

Leslie C. Driesner graduated with a BFA in Dance from the University of Illinois in 2002. After managing a cigar store for nearly one year, Leslie longed for physicality in her life. In 2003 she began studying Pilates with Janice Dulak. A year later Leslie began the Romana's Pilates certification program and in December of 2004, she became The Pilates Center's office manager. Leslie completed her Romana's Pilates Certification in April 2005.

Noël Chase, The Pilates Center Manager
Senior Instructor Trainer (Level 3)

Noël Chase, promoted to Senior Instructor Trainer (Level 3) in October 2008, has taught for Janice since 2001. Noel holds a BS in Horticulture and has worked as a resturant and wine cellar manger, a hotshot fire fighter, and market gardener before she was introduced to the Pilates Method. Noël's interests include mountain biking, yachting, hiking and fine wine. Her passion for physicality is what led her to her Pilates certification in November 2001.

Trina Link finished her Romana's Pilates Certification in 09 and besides teaching, she is also serving as The Pilates Center's Office Manager. Trina hails from Jefferson City, Missouri where her mother and father were clients of Noel Chase's at Janice's first studio. Trina is a graduate of Truman University but found that her love of what Pilates has done for her body was so astounding that she had to become a teacher so she can help others with their body issues.

Leigh O'Malley

Leigh O'Malley began taking Pilates in September of 2002 with Janice Dulak when a foot surgery created problems for her gym workouts. She became hooked on the method and although a working professional at the University of Illinois, she decided to train to become an instructor. Leigh considers The Pilates Studio her "happy place" and enjoys teaching part time while she continues as Assistant Chief Engineer for WILL, the public television and radio broadcast arm of the university.
