MEET THE TEAM.

everyBODY IS UNIQUE

AN INCLUSIVE, UNASSUMING SPACE WHERE everyBODY IS WELCOMED.

Pump is the brainchild of local resident and pilates devotee turned certified instructor Jennifer Shukofsky. A life-long fitness enthusiast and mom of three, Jennifer understands that every BODY is unique and ever-evolving.  As a consumer, instructor, and later as a co-owner of a former studio, Jennifer noticed that many people found Pilates really intimidating. Pump was created to make Pilates more accessible and less intimidating- to everyBODY and anyBODY. Jennifer created Pump to offer her local community an unassuming and inclusive space to workout and experience Pilates. Rooted at Pump’s foundation is the belief that every BODY is unique, and at Pump clients are taught to workout safely and effectively- for THEIR bodies. We welcome pre- and postnatal clients, post-rehab clients, long-time devotees and beginners alike. With offerings you won’t find anywhere else and a team of rockstar instructors like no other, Pump is not just another Pilates studio. Pump is Pilates, rePurposed.

After obtaining her pilates certification (Balanced Body), she pursued a certification in personal training (NASM). She also holds a master’s degree from Boston College in Counseling Psychology, which affords her a unique understanding and perspective of the human psyche, and adds tremendous value in her ability to coach, motivate and support her clients.
