A BIT ABOUT ME

Growing up, the only organized athletic activity I participated in was P.E. class in school.  Despite reminders to "stand up straight" from well-meaning friends and family, I could not seem to fix my posture on my own.  In adulthood, I finally connected with fitness mentors that helped me understand the role that balanced muscle tone and flexibility played in achieving better posture, as well as for reducing risk of injuries and resolving nagging pains due to alignment issues.  I studied the 'Contrology' components developed by Joseph Pilates, who struggled with childhood health issues.  In 2009 I became a certified as a group exercise instructor with a Pilates focus.   I immediately began teaching but I also remained a student, always intrigued by multiple exercise formats.  In January 2022, I completed my Yoga 200 hour instructor training.  I adore teaching and find joy in bringing knowledge and wellness to others.  I work with a wide range of people, and always love creatively adapting my instruction in order to create modifications or supports for individual needs.
