Why I practice:
Pilates provides a challenging, curious, and compassionate way to explore possibilities for myself as a mover. I've never done a session or a class in which I didn't learn something about myself or my body. Pilates allows me to keep discovering, strengthening, deepening my mind-body connection as well as my physical body. It helps me remain curious.
Why I teach:
I hope to cultivate a similar curiosity and ongoing process of self-discovery for my clients. I want them to be able to do anything they enjoy: kayak, bake a cake, ride a bike, enjoy a museum, and feel fortified and bolstered by what they've learned in Pilates. I hope it can be a tool for them outside of the studio to cultivate self-awareness and to enhance whatever physical activity they enjoy.
What to expect in my class:
My class takes a biomechanical or anatomical theme and explores it in many different ways including physical challenge, body awareness, and a sense of humor. We’ll find strategies to unlock your strength and remain curious about how our bodies work.
