Healing Arts Pilates

At Healing Arts Pilates we believe Movement is Medicine and pilates is an intelligent form of exercise that provides seriously healthy results. After suffering a back injury many years ago I discovered the healing powers of pilates for myself and have become an advocate for the practice. I practiced pilates for many years before deciding that I wanted to help others discover, practice and benefit from the pilates method as I did. 

The Pilates work is for everyone, all ages, genders and fitness abilities.. which is one of the things that i love the most. One of my most memorable moments teaching was working with a client that was dealing with Multiple sclerosis and having difficulty walking, something that a lot of us take for granted. We were working on the pilates reformer when she started crying. At first I was alarmed thinking that something was painfull.. but she explained that the tears were happy tears. She was emotional because she was feeling her legs working for the first time in years. That was the moment that solidified my commitment to my pilates practice, knowledge & efforts to create a space that is safe and welcoming. Healing Arts pilates offers classes that has a wide array of participants, young & not so young, athletic to those who haven’t worked out in years, & people dealing with injuries and/or conditions.  My best days are when I see the look someone’s face when they just accomplished something they didn’t think they could do. It’s the best feeling to know that you made a difference for someone.. :)
