Meet the Team

  • Jackie Culver

    Owner, Yoga & Pilates Instructor

    Jackie is a certified yoga and Pilates instructor with a deep passion for movement, mindfulness, and holistic wellness. She completed her 500-hour yoga teacher training in both the United States and India, and is trained in mat and reformer Pilates through Power Pilates and Balanced Body. Driven by a desire to create a supportive and inspiring environment, Jackie founded Meraki—a studio dedicated to helping people feel grounded, empowered, and deeply connected to their bodies. She has called Whitefish, Montana home since graduating from Glacier High School in 2014. She finds joy and balance outside the studio by exploring the trails, skiing on Big Mountain, riding horses and spending time with family.

  • Shannon Moyneur

    Pilates Instructor

    Shannon’s fitness teaching journey began in 2017 when she got her Yoga Teacher Training 200-hour certification (YTT-200). Her life was forever changed when she started practicing yoga, and knew it was something she wanted to learn deeper and share with others. In 2021, she pursued her Pilates certification and fell in love once again with a new style of fitness that she also had a passion to share. She has taught group reformer classes in Orange County, CA for multiple years before moving to Mexico and finally now calling Northwest Montana "home". She is so excited to continue sharing the joy of Pilates with the Whitefish and surrounding community!

  • Brianna Barraza

    Yoga Instructor

With over 500 hours of yoga teacher training and mentorship from accomplished instructors like Morgan Lee, Calvin Corzine, Susie Frank, and Mark Robberds, her approach blends precision, creativity, and depth. Honored with Best Yoga Teacher nominations in Whitefish for both 2024 and 2025, she is here to help you move with intention, sweat with purpose, and discover your edge.

  • Sabrina McCLure

    Barre Instructor

    Sabrina started teaching barre in 2018 in San Diego, California. Having worked as a personal trainer, barre, and pilates instructor,  her goal is to create positive, empowering, and music-driven classes that leave clients feeling stronger, happier, and more confident. She specializes in helping others discover their inner strength and confidence through exercise.

    Her classes are challenging, energetic, and perfectly synchronized to the beat—designed to motivate, energize, and inspire. Sabrina is dedicated to guiding those on their journey to confidence, knowledge, and strength through movement. 

  • Claire Oswald

    Pilates Instructor

    Claire is a former Division I athlete who discovered Pilates, barre, and yoga as a way to stay strong, mobile, and connected to her body beyond competitive sport. After years of high-intensity training, she fell in love with movement that builds real strength, stability, and control while supporting longevity and balance.

    Claire’s teaching style is empowering, energetic, and thoughtfully challenging. She wants you to leave class feeling stronger, more confident, and genuinely good in your body. Expect smart sequencing, sneaky strength work, and playlists that range from Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter to Kendrick Lamar.

    Outside the studio, Claire embraces the Whitefish lifestyle. You’ll find her hiking, skiing, fly fishing, or pre-adventure grabbing coffee at Fleur. Her goal is to help people reconnect with movement, trust their bodies, and fall back in love with feeling strong. Claire completed her Hot Mat and Reformer Pilates Certification at Meraki in Whitefish.

  • Claire Bick

    Pilates Instructor

    Claire has been hooked on movement for as long as she can remember—from college athletics to long mountain days outside. After spending years as a dedicated class-taker, she made the leap to teaching in 2025 and completed her Hot Mat and Reformer Pilates Certification at Meraki in Whitefish.

    Her classes are high-energy, music-forward, and sneaky-hard in the best way. You’ll get flowy sequences, lots of options, and plenty of encouragement to find the right level of challenge for your body.

    Born and raised in Montana, Claire is happiest when she’s moving—skiing, horseback riding, hiking, fly fishing, and anything in between. She loves helping others tap into that same spark and build strong, capable bodies for whatever adventures come their way.

  • Mia Mendoza

    To Mia, yoga is more than movement. Yoga is stillness. Silence. Play. Community. Love. It has been, and will always be, her chosen path to remembering who she is. Yoga became sacred to Mia in college–through times of darkness, life transitions, the unknown, yoga was her constant. She is beyond thrilled to have completed her 200hr YTT this year, and is honored to share fresh knowledge with her beautiful hometown. Mia weaves music, pranayama (breathwork), and philosophy into her vinyasa flows that are thoughtfully created for every-BODY. Although now a teacher, she is forever a student of yoga and cultivates a nurturing, honest, and loving environment on and off her mat. When she's not in the studio, you can find Mia skiing, hiking, fishing, and knitting!

  • Claudia Smith

    Pilates & Barre Instructor

    Hi, I’m Claudia—your newest Pilates teacher! I’ve been practicing Pilates for 15 years, and I bring a unique blend of Pilates precision with a barre-informed approach that’s deep, intentional, and all about mindful movement. Expect strong form cues, thoughtful pacing, and that “you felt it in the best way” kind of burn. My playlists are all over the map—in the best way—ranging from Sabrina Carpenter and Chris Stapleton to Kendrick Lamar, plus the occasional classical vibe. Come move with me and let’s make every rep count.

  • Nathalie Coggins

    Yoga and Barre Instructor

    Nathalie has been teaching yoga since 2008, guided by a deep passion for movement, meditation, and the journey of self-discovery. Her work weaves together breath, sound, movement, and stillness, creating a space where students can reconnect with the sweetness of their true being.

    Yoga has been a profound force in her own life, allowing her to touch the light within herself and move through the world with more presence and compassion. It is her greatest joy to share this path with others—to hold space for them as they explore their own inner light and come home to themselves.

  • Stephanie Stabenow

    Barre & ReBarre Instructor

With over 400+ classes taught and voted "Best Fitness Instructor of Whitefish" four years in a row, Stephanie brings a unique and motivating approach, blending years of experience with a commitment to community and connection. Commonly referred to as a “hype girl,” she leads with encouragement, helping every client discover their inner strength and is focused on making every class accessible!

  • Claire Gillis

    Pilates & Yoga Instructor

    Claire’s passions include mountaineering, skiing, snowboarding, climbing and running. For many years, she has used weight lifting, yoga and barre to prepare her body for long, injury-free days in the mountains. In Fall 2025, she obtained her 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India and she is a recent graduate of Meraki’s in-house Pilates teacher training program.

    Claire’s classes focus on building functional strength for the outdoors. Expect a challenging, high-energy workout set to EDM and hip hop.
