Why Pilates
I’m a movement artist, educator, and researcher inspired by the interconnectedness of movement and overall wellness. Dance was my first love, and I’m a Juilliard dance graduate with an MFA from UC Irvine. Pilates became a natural extension of my movement journey, allowing me to help clients rediscover integrated, pain-free movement through awareness and total-body conditioning. I’m certified in Pilates, GYROTONIC®, and GYROKINESIS®.

Favorite Pilates Exercise
Mermaid — because side-body opening and spirals never get old.
