Savannah
Lead Instructor
Hi my name is Savannah Holmes!! I originally got into pilates after having back and brain surgery in 2015. I discovered I had scoliosis when I was 12 years old. I ended up having to wear a back brace for 3 years. Long story short... my back had gotten worse as I grew and I needed surgery to fix everything. We had an MRI show spinal fluid was collecting in the back of my skull so they rushed me to brain surgery. I then had my spinal fusion a few months later. After spinal surgery, I wasn’t allowed to exercise or do any form of high intensity training for a full year in insure my back was fully fused. I was very weak and needed to rebuild my strength. I was frustrated at times because every source of exercise I tried hurt me. That’s when I found Pilates.
I was so excited to finally find an exercise program that didn’t hurt my back and could build my muscles without pain!! I am forever grateful for my family friend who introduced me to Pilates and eventually pushed me to be an instructor!!
I LOVE helping others reach their exercise goals!! I'm feel like such a proud soccer mom when clients tell me they've seen themselves move and feel better. I'll be your biggest cheerleader, so come see me in class!! Some fun facts: I love snowboarding, wake surfing, weight lifting, and absolutely LOVE big dogs!! I have a St. Bernard named Mocha and I adore her!! So just be prepared to hear me talking about her!!
