I manage a home-based studio in Hollis, NH, USA, generally five hours behind the UK.
I started practicing Pilates in 2000, looking for a way to restore my body after having children in the 1990s. I began my Pilates teacher training in 2005 and became comprehensively trained in the STOTT Pilates method in 2009. My university education and prior work experience were in Electrical Engineering. I love problem-solving and have a natural curiosity, which serves me well as a Pilates teacher.
I have explored other forms of Pilates training through various workshops and coursework, including Classical Pilates training with The Vertical Workshop. In 2014, I became a National Pilates Certified Teacher.
I was thrilled to discover Claire Sparrow’s work during the 2020 Pilates Method Alliance online conference and later reconnected with her expertise by reading her 2023 best-selling book, Hope for Your Pelvic Floor. In 2024, I enrolled in and completed the Whole Body Pelvic Health Mentorship program. Claire’s Whole Body Pelvic Health approach has helped me reconnect with my body while providing invaluable tools for both myself and my clients. Now, rather than simply powering through movements, we can fully engage with the true essence of the Pilates method.
