About Me
I found Pilates in 1998 when I was struggling to recover post-partum. Consistent Pilates helped me recover from numerous injuries along the way including knee surgery. The strength and joy I found in Pilates led me to Yoga, Aerial Yoga and Aerial Dance. For some reason I am happiest when I am hanging upside down! When I am not in the studio working out I am either cooking up vats of soup for my family, fanatically gardening, sprinting dog agility courses with my crazy fast dogs or hanging out with my gaggle of cats!
I have spent many hours studying with the following fabulous Pilates schools:
- Articulate Eye Comprehensive Pilates Teacher Training (2005)
- Power Pilates Comprehensive Bridge Program (2010)
- Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Bridge Program (2011)
- Polestar Pilates Advanced Program - 104 hours of specialty courses including
Pilates for Neurological Rehab, Women's Health, Scoliosis, Gait Analysis and
Pathokinesiology of the Lumbar Spine, Upper and Lower Extremities.
- The Pilates Center of Boulder Co. Masters Program (2013)
- Ellie Herman Pilates Teacher Training Bridge Program (2014)
- The Madeline Black Method Series 1 and 2 (2020)
​
I trained with Faith Hunter of Embrace Yoga (Washington D.C.) for both my 200 and 300 hour YYT programs in 2011 and 2012.
​
My Aerial Yoga training journey began with AirCat Aerial Yoga in Boulder Co. in 2011 (level 1) and 2012 (level 2.) I continued with Om Factory in NY, completing the Comprehensive Program and the Advanced Instructor Training in 2018.
​
In addition, I am a Master Certified Health Coach with the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute as well as an IIN certified health coach - the Institute of Integrated Nutrition, specializing in nutrition and holistic wellness. I am certified in Hormone Health with IIN as well.
