I know what it’s like to navigate what feels like a new body after birth. Pilates helped me after my 2 births: one vaginal and one c-section, and I’m so grateful to offer that support to others. I offer Pilates through an inclusive non-judgemental lens. My specialties include pelvic floor health and recutus diastasis. I help support your body so you can get back to activities you love. I offer 1:1 sessions in my east side studio as well as virtual classes and sessions.
