Fitness is an integral part of who I am. If I’ve had a great day, workout, If I’ve had a bad day, workout. I love it and do it, It’s as simple as that. Its not an in and out thing, but a life long lifestyle which I hope will take me well into my hundreds.
I didn’t stumble back into pilates until after the birth of my second child which was only 12 months after the birth of my first. My body was sore and tired not only from two close pregnancies but the year prior to having my first I went through chemotherapy and radiation which had left some serious aches and pains. Some days just walking was painful. I wasn’t able to run or do those high intensity workouts I loved so much prior to a life changing experience. I walked into a Pilates studio and fell in love all over again. I also knew at that point having two littles at home that I wanted something extra for myself. The rest is history.
Pilates is something that is for everybody and I find so much motivation in sharing that with others. Along this path I have also changed my thought process on fitness and re trained my brain on fitness and fitness culture. I do it because I love it, Not to fit into a dress or earn my snack but because our bodies are a vessel for our soul that carries us through this amazing life. To allow myself the grace to skip days and move with what feels good and right for me.
I hope to see on the mat
With 15 years in the fitness and Pilates industry, I have always been passionate about health, movement and wellness. I enjoy working with clients to help them achieve their fitness goals or work through any injuries to gain strength, as Pilates has done for me.
I have always loved fitness and at a young age I channelled that by playing hockey for many years. As I got older I turned to other ways to stay fit and healthy and once I found Pilates I was hooked; my body was transformed and I wanted to share it with the world. After, a corporate career I opened my first Pilates studio at the age of 26. I have been through many ups and downs of life, but one thing has always been a mainstay and that is my Pilates practice. One of my favourite quotes from Joseph Pilates is “Change happens through movement and movement heals” it couldn’t be true as I have experienced it myself and I look forward to sharing it with you!
Over the years, I have obtained the knowledge and expertise to work with clients of all ages and backgrounds. My teaching style is fun, energetic, effective and motivating. Teaching clients the many benefits of Pilates is one of the joys that I look forward to in every class.
I also have a background as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and enjoy living a healthy lifestyle for myself and family.
