About me

I found my love for reformer-based Pilates in late 2015 when a Pilates studio opened up in my neighborhood shopping center. I initially only committed to 2 classes a week, but after using my 8 credits I quickly realized the mental clarity and the physical and emotional benefits I began to see in my daily life. I decided to put my health and well-being first, committing to practicing 1-2 hours a day 5 days a week. I’ve studied under Maylin Galarraga Garcia, Lexi Stinger, Melinda Johnson, Bebe Campbell, Rinda Phillips, Luisa Fernanda Núñez, and Angela Donnelly. After 5 years of practicing, I felt it was time to deepen my knowledge and pursue a 500-hour Pilates certification; studying under Master Trainer Marilyn Harder from Sacramento, California.

In 2022, I decided to pursue a new movement method outside of Pilates and found the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®, studying under Master Trainer Pam Blangy @ Pilates And Motion, in Katy, Texas.

I have taught over 1600 pilates group classes in the greater Houston area studios and have hundreds of hours of teaching private one-on-one sessions; ages ranging from 14 years young to 85 years old.

  • I hold a 500-hour Pilates comprehensive certification in Mat work, Reformer, Chair, Ladder Barrel, Cadillac, SpringBoard, Spine Corrector, Pilates magical circle, FSM (functional Standing Movement), & TRX suspension training.

  • I hold a certification from Barre Above with a Pilates focus.

  • I am currently a Level 1 GYROTONIC Apprentice.

I’d love to meet you, discuss your goals, and help you get started on your journey to a stronger mind, body, & core at The CORE Movement Studio.

Never slouch as doing so compresses the lungs, overcrowds other vital organs, rounds the back, and throws you off balance.
