I bring extensive experience in performance, knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics, and a complex understanding of somatics (mind-body connection) to her teaching. As a professional dancer, I instantly connected with the Pilates method and have been an Instructor since 1998.
I was trained in New York City by Fran Lehen, a protégé of Carola Trier, and taught at her studio, Groundfloor NYC, for 12 years. I am a PMA® Certified Pilates Teacher and earned a mat certification from the Kane School of Core Integration. I have also taught dance and Pilates in universities including Hofstra, where I developed a Pilates curriculum that supported both the kinesiology and technique classes for dance majors.
At the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, I created and taught Pilates Technique and Applications to MFA graduate students. Currently, I am a Pilates Instructor and Contemporary Dance Teacher for groups and individuals in San Francisco, where I use my knowledge and experience to facilitate empowerment and growth in my students.
