I am a Pilates instructor and am trained in all pieces of equipment. Based upon my experiences as a client and the research I conducted when I decided to make a career change, I believe Stott Pilates is the most rigorous and thorough Pilates training available. An incredible Columbia, SC based Stott instructor, Cathy B., inspired my passion and encouraged me to pursue my passion for Pilates. However, I do not limit my learning to just one methodology. In addition to my Stott training, I have begun Scolio-Pilates training under Karena Theck and am compiling my hours for her Mentorship training and certification as a Scolio-Pilates Practitioner. I have studied BASI and Fletcher Pilates methods. Whenever I travel, I seek out private Pilates sessions with the best instructors available and have been fortunate to have taken classes under two 2nd generation instructors. I am also honored to be a humble student of Gyrotonics instructor Rosemary Carnes. Maintaining and building core strength and flexibility is at the heart of every pilates class. However, no two classes will ever be alike. Every class is different and is attuned to a client's changing needs and abilities. I have worked with exercise novices to dedicated athletes and all achieved results from practicing pilates. In addition to a general focus on fitness, I am trained to work with clients who have unique concerns. I offer pre & post-natal pilates. offer Pilates for rehabilitation, aging in place, rehabilitation from injury or surgery, and pilates for the breast cancer survivor. As the sister of a young man with autism, I am very interested in adapting Pilates methods to work on balance and hand-eye coordination in an environment that encourages development of social skills. I am also keenly interested in finding ways to give back to our veterans now that my studio is in a larger and fully accessible space.
