Never stop learning the why behind the movement. Spent the weekend auditing Reformer 2 to stay sharp, dive deeper into the mechanics, and keep the repertoire inspired.

Whether you're starting completely fresh, coming back after time off, or working around physical limitations, I want to meet you where you are.
​In my private studio, you get true 1-on-1 apparatus instruction tailored entirely to your body, goals, and pace. As a comprehensively trained Balanced Body instructor with second-generation Joseph Pilates lineage, I prioritize safe movement, proper form, and complete client discretion above all else—in a quiet, peaceful space built for real focus.

It’s not just a warm-up…

Footwork is where everything begins—alignment, strength, and breath.

On the Reformer, Wunda Chair, and Tower, each intentional movement:

Builds strength in the muscular system
Supports flow within the lymphatic system
Uses breath to regulate the nervous system

This is why we don’t rush it.

Post-op went amazing and PT is off to a great start 🙏🏽
Taking it one day at a time, staying consistent with my exercises + light upper body & core Pilates.
Almost halfway there… feeling stronger every day 💫
Plus, soaking up all the puppy love 🐾 and extra attention from my hubby 🤍

Yesterday I underwent knee surgery after being diagnosed with a meniscus root tear. While this journey hasn’t been easy, I’m incredibly grateful for everything that led me here — including the strength I built beforehand.
Even leading up to surgery, I was still able to attend the Balanced Body Tour in New York — a reminder that we are capable of so much, even in challenging moments.
Through Pilates, I focused on strengthening my glutes, hamstrings, quads, and core — building a foundation that I know will support my recovery and healing process.
Now, I’m taking it one day at a time. In two weeks, I begin rehab, and you already know Pilates will be part of my journey back — with intention, patience, and respect for my body.
This is not a setback… it’s a setup for a stronger return. 💛

I spent the weekend continuing my Pilates education with Balanced Body 50th year Anniversary Tour, in Lincoln Center, NYC— Celebrating five decades of innovation in movement education. Thank you , Ken Endelman & Joy Puleo.
Over the weekend I participated in sessions including:
• Our Dynamic Trunk with Irene Dowd
• Reform Your Reformer: Tips for the Ideal and Challenge Exercises that We All Need Help On
• Hand It to Me – Connecting to the Spine
• Fascia Release and Joint Mobility Strategies for the Lumbar Spine, Pelvis, Hip and Knee
• Reformer and Tower Combo Class
• Arm Spring Power: From Supine to Standing
Each workshop deepened my understanding of how the trunk, spine, fascia, and limbs integrate to support stronger, more intelligent movement.
•Konenctions on the Mat
Continuing education like this allows me to keep refining how I teach and support my clients in building strength, resilience, and longevity in their bodies. Grateful for the opportunity to keep learning and growing in this field.

Client of the day: very cute, very distracting, still learning the cues 🐶💛. Meet Coco, Cavapoo, my little girl.

My why:
I became a Pilates instructor because I experienced what it feels like to be just another body in a room. Repeating the same workout, month after month, without true personalization.

Pilates is so much more than footwork and arm work. It’s about understanding your body, your movement patterns, your goals, and what your body truly needs — and then teaching with intention, so you can advance safely in your practice. I train all bodies, meeting you where you are and helping you progress with confidence and care.

That’s why I created a space where clients aren’t numbers. They’re individuals. Every session is intentional, thoughtful, and designed for you — because quality care creates real, lasting results.
