My body developed some functional asymmetries as a teenager which is how I found pilates, as a young person in pain. Learning pilates could give me my body back set me ablaze for learning the method. I started at a big box, because it was cheap as an 18 year old, then wafted over to someone who came out of the Houston Ballet that left me well trained on the mat and anatomy but I wanted more. I soon after found my first comprehensive program which trained me on Balanced Body and Gratz equipment, but it had some gaps I needed filled. After a weekend long workshop with a second generation teacher on Gratz my brain chemistry was forever changed, and so was my body. After that I went to New York and California to train with people who could help me understand the various roots of the system. I was seeking the why and how pretty seriously.
After that adventure in 2017 I went on a hunt for another comprehensive cert and found one. This robust training was based out of New York. I completed this training while opening a studio here in Houston with a colleague where we hosted that educational training program. I enjoyed 5 years teaching teachers to teach and clients to trust their bodies. This season of my professional and personal development lasted from March of 2017 through February 2022.
After divesting and taking a 2-year career pause to focus on family and what would be next I missed the work I had molded my life around. I never stopped working in my body but halted teaching clients.
Spring of 2024 I began taking on clients once again. I have never felt more full of passion for further learning and delivering of this life changing system here are Contrology Co-Op.
I teach this methodology in a way that can be absorbed and understood by any body and any mover. Regardless of your injuries or experiences we will enjoy goal setting, realizing milestones and exceeding what we thought was possible beside one another working within your bodies' limitations and expectation day-to-day because every body and every day is different. Let's chat for a deeper discussion of what you can expect inside this system working together towards your goals.
