FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes, every two years I complete continuing ed classes to keep my Pilates certification current. In 2011 I became a Breast Cancer Exercise Specialist from The Pink Ribbon Program and in 2013 I completed Pilates for ACL Rehab at Pilates on Tour in Chicago.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was a ballet dancer and suffered two knee injuries as a teenager. Many years later, I became pregnant and was searching for a class that was low-impact and found Pilates. After two months of mat classes, my knee pain disappeared and I never suffered from low back pain during my pregnancy. I became hooked on Pilates and in 2008 decided to leave a high profile marketing job in order to help others overcome their injuries, feel better about their own bodies and help cultivate their overall mind-body connection.
