The change happening is personal for me. ❤️🩹
Recently, I had an appointment that reinforced something I’ve been thinking about for a long time. As someone who is now 50, I learned that I have early stage osteoporosis in my spine. While I’ve dedicated my life to movement, wellness, and helping others feel their best, it was a powerful reminder that in all phases of our lives, our bodies need more than just movement, we need strategies that actively support all stages of a women’s life. These strategies include bone health, muscle mass, strength, and longevity and more.
Pilates will always be at the heart of what we do. It improves posture, mobility, balance, core strength, and body awareness in ways that are truly life changing. But research continues to show that strength training is one of the most effective tools we have for maintaining bone density and preserving muscle as we age.
That realization is what led me to bring MAT/RX and our Recovery Room to Oro Valley. MAT/RX is “prescribed for strength”
a workout that combines the core-focused foundation of Mat Pilates with the energy and challenge of a gym-style workout.
My goal has never been to simply offer fitness classes. My goal is to create spaces that help women feel strong, capable, confident, and supported through every stage of life. As our needs change, our approach to wellness should evolve too.
This next chapter is about longevity. It’s about protecting our future selves. It’s about building strength, supporting recovery, and investing in our health today so we can continue doing the things we love for years to come.
As we grow, I’m excited that we’ll be able to offer two studios, two experiences, and one shared commitment to helping you move well for life. Our Marana location will continue to be the reformer focused Pilates studio you know and love, while Oro Valley will expand our wellness offerings with Mat/RX, recovery services, and new ways to support strength and healthy aging.
I’m incredibly excited for what’s ahead and even more grateful to share this journey with all of you. 🤍
