Pilates is my passion. It helps me feel stronger, more focused, empowered and happier
My journey in movement education began at the age of 16 in aquatics. After completing my undergrad at Lakehead University, I realised I needed to pursue an active career and I took the Professional Personal Training Diploma at Ryerson and CPTN Personal Training Certification. After the birth of my daughters, I started taking Pilates classes at my local YMCA. Pilates pulled me out of postpartum blues and ignited a new spark in the workouts I was creating for clients as a personal trainer. My pilates instructor at the time encouraged me to go to Body Harmonics where I was lucky enough to train with Margot McKinnon for my Level One Mat Certification. Shortly after becoming a mat instructor I also discovered Caitlin and her team here at Pilates in Guelph.
After Personal Training many years in Private, Non Profit and Corporate Clubs I started my own travelling Personal Training business in Cambridge in September of 2007. During the pandemic my business became 100% Zoom Pilates classes and I still teach those people via zoom 5 times a week. By the end of the pandemic I felt I needed more positive energy around me and more pilates.
That is why I am so happy to have recently joined this amazing team here at Pilates in Guelph where I continue to learn and get to share my passion for moving well. My goal is to help people be their best by teaching them how to get the best from their bodies. I hope I can help you love pilates as much as I do.
