Certified in the classical Pilates method, I am dedicated to preserving and teaching the authentic system developed by Joseph Pilates. My approach emphasizes understanding the principles, naming conventions, and sequences that form the foundation of this transformative practice.
Our private studio in Yakima provides a focused environment where you can develop a personal relationship with the classical method. Each session is tailored to your needs while maintaining the integrity of the original system.
Unlike mat-only or reformer-focused classes, our sessions encompass the full Pilates system. You'll learn to execute each exercise with precision while understanding its purpose within the greater framework. This comprehensive approach builds not just strength and flexibility, but also body literacy and independence.
Experience a deeper, system-wide practice that encompasses all Pilates apparatus and principles.
Learn exercise names, principles, and sequences to develop an independent, lifelong Pilates practice.
Receive one-on-one authentic teaching tailored to your specific needs and goals.
Focused sessions to rebuild strength, mobility, and body literacy.
You've tried group classes—now deepen your practice with private, full‑system sessions.
Learn the method to support lifelong core health and prevent future injuries.
