I'm all about ❤️, Peace, Freedom, and Joy through movement practice.
My wish for you, my fellow human, is that you may experience and enjoy life to its fullest extent, through trying times, through joyful times. What floats my boat? Teaching Pilates by AIM - BMA's signature somatic movement approach to pilates - to clients in my studio every day!
To me - ~Life is a dance~ - and I am here to assist as you keep moving through change!
As BMA Director, my aim is to connect with pilates teachers and other body-mind movement and manual professionals who are ready to advance their careers and fields. My vision is to build a sustainable, cooperative network of somatic movement education professionals, who provide top quality services, grounded in the work of Joseph H. Pilates, reaching out across the bodymind spectrum, encouraging collaboration and research for enhanced human health, consciousness, and potential.
With Spirit and Gravity...I've got all I need, and, so, I give my all--every day. My passion is to clarify and simplify my teaching techniques, and after 40 years, I think I might be on to something!
I chose this photo (my son & me--many years ago) because it was a truly awesome moment...feeling physically free to move with exuberance and without a care, outdoors on a sunny day, with someone I love dearly. Life should be like this!
