Trier, Carola S.
Carola Strauss Trier (1913-2000) was born in Germany in 1913. She and her family lived and worked in Europe until the Second World War, when she was sent to a Nazi-run detention camp in France. She escaped and immigrated to New York in 1942. Carola married Edgar Trier and supported herself in the United States as a dancer, acrobat, and most notably a roller-skating contortionist, before a devastating injury brought her to Joseph and Clara Pilates, founders of the Pilates method of exercise and strength-training. In the late 1950s, having been trained by the Pilates, she opened her own Contrology studio and later furthered her anatomical knowledge at New York City's Lenox Hill Hospital, where she aided Dr. Henry Jordan with patient rehabilitation and research. Trier combined her medical and Pilates experiences to develop various exercises and stretching techniques for dancers, many of which are still in use. In 1982, Trier authored a book for children entitled Exercise, What it is, What it Does, which introduced and emphasized the benefit and enjoyment of exercising both alone and with friends. Trier was an active teacher, lecturer, and practitioner until the late 1980s, serving as a coach for choreographer Gloria Contreras until 1985. Carola Trier passed away in New York City on October 28, 2000 at the age of 89.
