Investigating mindful movement and inner healing is my life passion. Through self embodiment and constant study & play, I have gained tools to heal my own chronic pain and recover from injuries, surgeries and emotional trauma. This knowledge allows me to guide clients on their journey towards living pain free with greater mobility, balance and joy. My approach supports all bodies, whether it’s an athlete who wants to improve their performance/recovery, or someone who simply wants to get more out of life in the aging process. As an experienced pre/post-natal instructor, I support and empower women through their birth process and beyond. I see my clients reenergize stagnant areas in their life - all while stabilizing joints and integrating their core. Wellbeing lies in the curiosity and commitment to find balance in our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. I am a guide in cultivating joy and healing through embodiment.
Specializing in group and private instruction, I am a fully certified Comprehensive Pilates Instructor through Balanced Body, a Level 5 MELT® Instructor, a certified Barre instructor and trained as a dancer since I was very young. After receiving my BFA in Dance from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2005, I moved to Jackson Hole, WY where I spent 15 years performing, teaching and directing the Pilates & Wellness program at Dancers’ Workshop. Currently I live in Fairfax, Vermont with my husband, two young boys and our dog. I’m pleased to be teaching at Synergy Center for Dance and Peace of Mind Pilates, in addition to my online offerings. I love exploring the outdoors, experiencing great food, listening/dancing to music and gathering with community.
