Ali Manion

Originally born and raised in Grosse Pointe, I spent the last decade in Denver, Colorado, where I quickly fell in love with group fitness. I started teaching barre in 2016 and is also certified as a general group fitness instructor through the National Association of Sports Medicine. A former competitive swimmer, I love developing community, as well as mental and physical endurance, through group exercise. I truly believe movement is healing! I previously worked as an elementary school and visual art teacher before pursuing a PhD in Child Psychology in 2017; I am back in Detroit to complete my pre-doctoral internship in pediatric Neuropsychology, and couldn't be happier to be back home and joining the Corner Studio team!
