Summary

I am a passionate and experienced Pilates professional with 10 years of practice experience and a strong foundation in classical and Megaformer methods. As a lifelong dancer with over a decade in ballet and performance, I bring precision, artistry, and dynamic energy to every class. With over 2 years of Pilates instruction experience, my prior knowledge of Pilates reaches back to 2015, and my burning passion for sharing Pilates with my fellow community lights a fire that is recognizable. I come with a strong reputation for delivering challenging yet accessible sessions that empower clients to feel strong, graceful, and confident in their bodies, both during and after a session. A pivotal moment of my life was having the honor to live in Tulum, Mexico, where I deepened my love for not only Pilates, but my spiritual well-being, which I incorporate into my practices with clients when applicable. My dream is to share my love of a method I strongly believe in with women and men who are like-minded and seek an aligning lifestyle in the Pilates community.
