I am so happy to join the Exhale family! I love guiding clients in their Pilates journey to find their internal ‘push and pulls’, creating strong and confident bodies with great posture.  Seeing the happiness clients earn from Pilates, be it injury recovery or just moving their bodies, is my biggest reward. A sports background (athletics, rowing, skiing, dance, tennis) has helped create a great eye for technique and alignment in my teaching, while making sure clients also have fun!

My first Pilates class years ago was a revelation to my spine after years of sitting work as a nutrition scientist. In 2010, I trained as a contemporary teacher (Body Control UK), opened a studio in Switzerland then Canada, bringing Pilates to ski towns. I discovered classical Pilates in Switzerland in 2012– aha, the the missing piece of the puzzle! Henceforth, I soaked up every classical opportunity (The Vertical Workshop), and still learning here today with APEI.  Teaching is an evolution, never stop learning and growing!
