Six instructors who know your springs

Everyone who teaches at Forma is comprehensively trained and teaches our class formats the same way, so a Flow is a Flow whoever leads it. What changes is the personality.

    Founder and lead instructor · 18 years teaching

    Lena opened Forma in 2017 after nine years teaching in two Chicago studios. She programs the class formats, trains every new instructor and still teaches the Thursday 6 PM Flow that sells out every week. Her cues are short and precise, and she will notice if your heels drift.

  • Dev Anand

    Instructor · 5 years teaching
