Meghan Uhl

Founder of 416™ Pilates & The 416™ Movement Academy

Master Instructor | NCPT | FUSE® Ladder Master Trainer | MELT Method L5 Instructor

Meghan, fueled by a profound dedication to empowering individuals on their journey to optimal well-being, brings over 30 years of experience in the fitness and movement education field. Across her career, she has studied extensively, taught globally, and guided countless clients toward more fluid, pain-free, and intelligent movement.

“Pilates is a powerful tool for healing and connecting the mind and body. When you layer in Restorative techniques to rehydrate, reintegrate, and re-pattern the system, you create a whole new movement experience—one without pain.”

As a respected educator in the movement world, Meghan is a Master Instructor for Balanced Body® and FUSE® Ladder, and is one of only a select number of Level 5 MELT Method Instructors in Illinois. Her work is rooted in an advanced understanding of the nervous system, the fascia network, and how sustainable movement practices can support a pain-free life.

Meghan is also the founder of the 416™ Movement Academy, a nationally recognized teacher-training program designed to develop highly skilled 416™ Movement Specialists. Every graduate of the Academy is qualified to sit for the National Pilates Certification Program (NCPT) exam, and all instructors on the 416™ team are either in training or have completed this rigorous pathway. Under Meghan’s leadership, 416™ instructors are known not only for their technical skill, but also for their deep understanding of the body and care for their clients.

Beyond training instructors, Meghan serves as a mentor to teachers and studio owners across the country. Her guidance extends from movement education to business development, helping studios grow with clarity, integrity, and sustainability.
