Sports and exercise has always been second nature.She ran track throughout her childhood, and continued to develop and showcase her talent at the college level. Ila has competed in the Mount Sac Relays and Arcadia Relays, to name a few. For 10 plus years Ila was an avid gym rat, lifting heavy and not completely understanding the damage she was doing to her body. As a collegiate athlete Ila suffered injuries which brought her to Pilates. In 2012, Ila discovered Pilates and immediately fell in love with the practice. Due to her spinal injury, Ila knew that Pilates would be the only thing that would allow for an active lifestyle with longevity. She said “For the first time I had control over my own body. My back and overall strength had never felt better.” As a former athlete, Ila’s goal is to share and teach the importance of a strong Powerhouse and healthy spine to all ages and fitness levels.She wants to encourage those through her own testimony that Pilates can return any body to life.
