MVPilates Personal Training

Introduction: I utilize all the tools in my toolkit to help my clients achieve what they are after, including Pilates, bodybuilding/sculpting techniques with weights, HIIT and aerobics, interwoven with therapeutic and Feldenkrais exercises. I apply my knowledge gleaned from years of working to transform my own body, navigating a variety of challenging obstacles including a battle with chronic illness, which has become one of my greatest teachers. To that end, I offer three programs, which are as follows: 1) Purely Pilates: For people who are looking to build a long, toned, dancer-like physique, want a more thoughtful weight-bearing exercise, are post-injury and want to prevent further injury or want to work on balance issues 2) Pilates plus Weights: In addition to Pilates, this includes building muscle mass in target areas. This is especially beneficial for people over 40, people who desire to change the muscular proportion of their bodies, and for osteoporosis, as it combines two of the three necessary challenges for bone health. 3) Pilates plus Weights and HIIT: This intersperses Pilates, weight training and intervals of aerobic activity, keeping the heart rate up at varying intervals for 55 minutes. This is for people who want a dynamic and challenging fat-burning program. This provides the three challenges bones need to prevent osteoporosis. Transformation excites me. Being an agent of change, not just physically but also energetically (as I have witnessed Pilates facilitate again and again), is what drives me to deeply invest in helping my clients reach their goals. I love seeing my clients glow after their sessions, as they feel the difference between when they enter and when they leave. I have always loved helping people and see Pilates and healthy movement as a powerful way to be of service.
