My Story: Uniting Passion with Purpose
My wellness journey began in a 1998 Pilates class and deepened through a powerful personal transformation. While working in the demanding world of construction, I developed a series of significant spinal injuries and chronic pain issues that could have ended my career far too soon. Pilates became my lifeline—helping me manage everything from nerve pain to structural imbalances so I could stay strong, functional, and working for many years until retirement.
Today, Pilates remains the foundation of my mobility, strength, and daily well-being. Even with a spine that has its fair share of challenges, Pilates continues to support me in moving with freedom, managing pain, and fully enjoying this next chapter of life.

I help people move through pain, stay active, and feel confident in their bodies. My programs are Taylor'd to your lifestyle, focusing on pain management, improved mobility, balanced strength, and hormonal health, so you can live and move at your best.
Expertise That Makes a Difference
Trained under Roberta Kirschenbaum at the original NYC studio of Joseph and Clara Pilates, my Pilates foundation is authentic and deeply rooted. Furthermore, I have honed my skills through the post-graduate program, The Heritage Training under Cara Reeser. This immersive training delved into the teachings of the legendary Kathy Grant, a first-generation master Pilates instructor and the only black woman certified by Joseph Pilates himself. Kathy Grant infused her style, incorporating unique exercises and creative movements that encouraged body exploration.
With this combination of classical and comprehensive training background, I bring a rich blend of traditional Pilates principles and innovative techniques to our sessions, ensuring a holistic approach to your wellness transformation.
With additional certifications as a Corrective Exercise Specialist and Nutrition & Health Coach, along with a passion for continuous education, I am uniquely equipped to guide you through your wellness journey with expertise and compassion.
Pilates and Beyond: A Legacy of Strength and Flexibility
I am classically trained and certified in Mat through Power Pilates, and I am trained in full, comprehensive apparatus with Stott and Balanced Body. This diverse training allows me to blend classical precision with contemporary science, choosing the approach that best serves the body in front of me. My mission is to help people stay active, mobile, and strong—for life.
