As a certified Pilates, Cycling, and Group Fitness teacher I own more black leggings than should be legally allowed, i've never met a skin care product I wouldn't try, a dog I didn't want to see a picture of, or a reality show I wouldn't watch.
My fitness teaching career started 15 years ago when I found my first fitness love: Indoor Cycling. But, as it happens to all of us, the years marched on and soon my back started hurting when I sneezed wrong. It quickly became apparent that I needed something different than box jumps and HIIT training. It was then I found my fitness soulmate: Pilates. For the first time in my life, I learned to work with my body, my mind, and my spirit to create cohesive movement that helped me in and out of the studio. My love of the reformer (and springboard and chair and jumpboard…) led me to getting certified through Club Pilates in 2018. Since then, I have had the privilege in standing besides members and clients as they learn (or re-learn) what their bodies are capable of without judgement (just awareness) I believe that movement comes in all sizes, the best part of being new is that you only have to do it once, and, if I say two more, I don’t mean it.
I can’t wait to see you in class and thank you for letting me be a part of your journey!
