Tenley jumped into the fitness world at 17 while in college at Virginia Tech, and it's been a wild ride ever since. Her relationship with movement has been a constant exploration, evolving alongside her through travel and self-discovery. She's got an artistic soul, and you can see it in everything she does - from dance to snapping photos and creating visual designs that are all about harmony and emotion.

After a short stint in the corporate world post-college, Tenley decided to hit the road and see the world. Along the way, she met incredible people who opened her eyes to pursuing dreams that she never thought were possible. Eventually, her adventures brought her back home to Virginia, where she trained in contemporary Pilates with the incredible Marianne Harman.

Tenley's purpose is to explore personal growth while keeping it real, which led her to turn her pursuits into a full-on profession. She's a direct communicator and teacher, always eager to learn and share the wisdom she's gained from world-class leaders in Pilates, yoga, meditation, and various types of mind-body therapies. In 2020, she made the move to Portland, and luckily, she's been able to build an amazing community doing what she loves.

Now, Rhythms Community Studio is the culmination of all the places Tenley has been and the incredible people who have inspired her along the way. It's her way of bringing together everything she's learned and sharing it with others in the most epic way possible.
