About

I know what it’s like to feel stuck with your body and frustrated by fitness. My own journey with PCOS and the old 'no pain, no gain' mindset left me drained. Pilates helped me shift from punishment to mindful movement. Now, I want to help you find that same freedom and joy in exercise.

What My Classes Feel Like

Expect a chill but energizing vibe. No judgment, just a supportive space to move, mess up, laugh, and try again. I offer Mat Pilates (the core of what I do), plus two other fun twists:

• Pop Pilates®: Think full-body session with dance, barre, and yoga, all set to pop music. Feels like a party, but you’ll know you worked out.
• Bed Pilates: For those days you just can’t get up, but still want to do something gentle and kind for your body.

I pay close attention to form, but more than that, I want you to listen to your body. I’ll always give options so you can make things harder or easier.

What You’ll Get

• Core strength Pilates workouts that really help with posture, flexibility, and balance
• Low-impact exercise for women that’s friendly for your joints (good for PCOS too)
• Real community vibes - we support each other and keep it real
• Movement that feels like self-care, not punishment

If you’re looking to build strength, feel better, and find a group that actually gets it, my classes might be a good fit.
