I have always loved to be active. Exercise has been a constant throughout my life and career in the mental health field and higher education. I’m happiest and feel the best when I consistently incorporate into my day some type of movement and exercise, whether it’s Pilates, rollerblading, weight-lifting, strength & cardio classes at the gym, biking, walking, swimming, hiking, dancing, or yoga. I have found that in addition to the many benefits it has to offer for body, mind, and spirit, Pilates is invaluable for our overall fitness goals at any age, at any performance level, and for helping prevent, manage and recover from injury and pain.
A few years ago, I decided to learn more about the world of Pilates and found my way to the Polestar Pilates Teacher Training Program. I’ve been hooked ever since! I immediately wanted to delve deeper and learn how to share with others the joy and lifelong benefits of Pilates. I trained as an Apprentice with Pilates for Life in Allen, the Tom Landry Center in Dallas and over the past year here with Cornerstone Pilates – all amazing and absolutely pivotal in helping me to realize my certification goal. I completed my comprehensive Polestar Pilates Teacher Certification in 2022 and I’m now a Resident Instructor at Cornerstone Pilates. The Resident Program consists of rigorous continuing education to help me to expand my skills as an instructor. I’m so excited to continue growing and working with co-owners Michelle and Cris, the CS staff, and most importantly, continuing this rewarding journey with you, the CS client!
