Work with me in Private & Group Pilates Classes in Santa Cruz & Ben Lomond

As a fully certified Balanced Body Reformer Instructor, I believe Pilates makes all bodies feel good and I know it complements a wide range of physical activity. Each session with a client can illuminate something new, bring more awareness of what the body needs, and increase one’s physical and mental  capacities.

There is always something to learn, and that sense of possibility fuels my private and group sessions. I want my clients to feel motivated and empowered to learn more about what their bodies can do, wherever you are on your road with Pilates.

I discovered Pilates on the Reformer in 2009. I am now a fully certified Balanced Body Reformer instructor. In my professional development, I have also completed Mat Pilates training and will become Comprehensive Pilates certified in the near future.
