I began my Pilates practice after the birth of my daughter in 2004. My former dance teacher suggested I try Pilates. I grew up competing in gymnastics and dance and the combination of the flowing movement, resistance of the springs and how invigorated I felt after my Pilates session,  I was immediately hooked. I received my Mat Certification through Power Pilates in        2008 and I completed the 600 hour Comprehensive Certification through Power Pilates/Classical Pilates Education in February, 2012 and have been teaching full-time ever since. I have a fully equipped studio featuring top of the line equipment by Pilates Designs by Basil and Gratz.  I have resided in Sarasota since 1986.
