Tiffany Stolzenfeld

Owner

As a longtime Fenton business owner and entrepreneur, Tiffany Stolzenfeld has spent much of her career building businesses, leading teams, and investing in the community she calls home. With a background in sales and business leadership, along with her involvement in a women’s boutique in Downtown Fenton, Tiffany has always believed that successful businesses are built around people, relationships, and community.


That philosophy inspired Fenton Pilates—a beautiful, boutique studio created to offer something more personal. With small classes, exceptional instructors, and an intentionally welcoming environment, Tiffany’s vision is for every person who walks through the doors to feel known, supported, and part of a community.



For Tiffany, Fenton Pilates is about more than movement. It’s about creating a place where people can feel stronger, connect with others, and truly enjoy taking time for themselves.

What We Stand For

These aren't wall prints. They're the decisions we make every day about class size, equipment, and the kind of teaching we hire for.

Inclusivity

Pilates is for every body, every age, every starting point. We cap class sizes and adapt every movement so no one is left behind or pushed beyond where they are today.

Mindful Movement

We teach the 'why' behind every exercise. Clients who understand the intention of a movement make faster progress and avoid injury.

Community

Small classes mean you'll know your fellow clients by name. We run social sessions and workshops because we think connection is part of the practice.
