Tanya Rockovich is a proud mom and wife residing here in Frederick, MD! A former teacher turned entrepreneur, her love of exercise and movement spans over 20 years — really blossoming with her participation in high school athletics, which transpired into taking fitness classes at a local YMCA in the off seasons. In college, she discovered barre and hot yoga and quickly became obsessed with how this workout made her feel. As a young woman growing up in the late 90s and 2000s, Tanya observed that many women did not have a healthy relationship with their bodies or movement. The era of cabbage soup, models diets, weight watchers and fad workouts left her confused and wondering why women felt the need to shrink. Upon discovering low impact movement — there was a revelation. Women could workout with the intention of feeling GOOD, without killing themselves or obsessing over looking a certain way. Opening herself up to the idea that It felt good to be STRONG, she then took to social media to promote exercise as a form of empowerment, creating online Pilates classes that focused on exercise as fun, uplifting, encouraging and doable for all levels and all bodies from the comfort of their homes!

In 2019, Tanya decided to leave the teaching profession to raise her daughters and focus on her entrepreneurial efforts in fitness. She started teaching reformer Pilates for a franchise, which led to creating an online Pilates program and instructing Pilates to her clients on a reformer from the basement of her home. In July of 2022, the first TONED studio was opened.

Tanya Rockovich is a [500 hour] comprehensively certified Pilates instructor, BARRE certified, and also trained in megaformer.
