Meet Carli Cole, a certified Pilates instructor + trained sound facilitator passionate about creating experiences that help people feel grounded, supported, and connected to themselves.

Carli first discovered Pilates during a season when she was seeking a way to relieve stress. What began as a personal practice quickly became something she felt called to share with others in a way that feels welcoming, approachable, and compassionate. She is a comprehensively trained Pilates instructor, having completed a 700+ hour teacher training program through Native Pilates.

After becoming a teacher, Carli found herself craving a practice that allowed her to simply be. Through her sound training with Ann Sensing and her own personal experience with sound baths, she discovered a deep sense of peace and restoration. This work taught her how to feel comfortable in stillness, quiet the distractions, and allow her nervous system to truly rest.

Whether through movement or stillness, Carli’s intention is the same: to create gentle, safe spaces where people can soften, reconnect, and feel more at home in themselves. Her teaching style is encouraging, inclusive, and rooted in the belief that wellness should feel supportive, not intimidating or performative.

Honey & Ray Pilates is inspired by Carli’s dogs, Honey and Raisin, and the energy they bring into her life: warmth, sweetness, and happiness. That same spirit carries through everything she creates, from private Pilates lessons and retreats to sound baths, wellness gatherings, and community events.
