Movement is a vital part of life - we are made to move! But often aches and pains restrict our ability and desire to move. I know this first hand.

As a kid, I was an avid skateboarder and snowboarder. I regularly suffered bumps and bruises plus a few more serious injuries as an adult (including ACL reconstruction, bunion surgeries, and cancer). I coped with the pain and worked through rehabilitation, at times feeling frustrated, but recognizing that those challenges presented opportunities for growth and positive change.

My current challenge is living with moderate to severe hip dysplasia. Knowing that surgery is not always the answer, and that movement is crucial, I rely on the skills I’ve learned to help keep my joints healthy and mobile, allowing me to still stay super active. Snowboarding, mountain biking, paddle boarding, Pilates, Yoga - I can happily engage in all the activities I love! You can too.

We all have our movement stories, and each one is different. I find joy in helping people re-write those stories. My 20 years of Pilates and Yoga experience, two comprehensive training certifications, and numerous other movement based certifications, have helped me develop the tools to help you succeed in finding your new story. I’m always excited to be there for the journey!
