FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have always been a very active and healthy person: a runner, dancer, yoga and Pilates lover! My prior profession was an RN in a variety of settings. I enjoy giving health to others! It was because of a severe car accident that I turned to Pilates solely. I had to let go of all running, yoga and dancing as they were detrimental at the time. Pilates was the only exercise I could perform. It became the key element to my recovery! I am forever grateful to Joseph Pilates who developed this exercise with the intent of bringing physical and mental health to everyone! The reformer was first developed by Joseph Pilates as he worked in a hospital during World War 1 with many injured soldiers. The Pilates practice is very unique in the sense that we are able to work with the limitations we may encounter or live with in life. It is also an excellent form of exercise to maintain a healthy lifestyle as well as a preventative health practice for many injuries and ailments. I am so thrilled to be able to give to others what I have been given with Pilates!
