"I started practicing Pilates in my home state of Rhode Island over fifteen years ago. I incorporated Pilates seamlessly into my life as my "regular fitness regimen" and quickly noticed that I was different than most students. During each session, I didn't want to just DO the work, get through the hour..... and then move on feeling amazing with my now strengthened and lengthened body. I wanted to know how and why this method worked. I wanted to actually teach this extraordinary "thing" called Pilates, so that I could share all of those "hows and whys" with anyone else that was interested.
About 10 years ago, I decided that it was finally time to share my passion on a professional level and entered the most comprehensive and definitive international Pilates educational program of it's kind: The Fletcher Pilates Program of Study.
I traveled from my home on the East Coast to California regularly for a number of years to study with world renowned Pilates Teachers and dancers until I earned my Teaching Certificate at the top of my class. My commitment to consistently improving both my own personal practice, and my clients' experiences motivates me to continue to study with my various mentors across the country.
I am very fortunate to have discovered my passion/purpose in this life: assisting others to feel and move better, obtain better mobility, become more aware of their bodies in space - and to (in the very least) feel energized both physically and emotionally through these connections. My students and I constantly learn from one another. My hope is to help people come to the realization that Pilates isn't just another exercise. It is a way of life and can open doors to alternate ways of perceiving one's abilities.
