Optimize session
My model of instruction has classical Pilates at the foundation, but also incorporates other modalities to optimize your mind, body, and spirit. After a decade of teaching Pilates, I believe it is optimized when your nervous system gets to decompress at the end of each session. Lessons are 70-minutes, allowing for thorough Pilates movement, followed by additional possibilities to improve relaxation, repair, and rejuvenation:
Red and infrared light therapy
Thermogem PEMF and heat mat
Grounding
Breath work
Meditation
HeartMath
Lymphatic stimulation
Gua Sha
Face Pilates
Lifestyle Coaching
Through quantum health principles, you learn the foundation for utilizing nature to return to health. We focus on how you can optimize sleep and energy through improved circadian rhythms, light, grounding, high quality sleep, water, mindset, and nervous system regulation.
Available in a 4-pack, we meet monthly for 55-minutes to learn new strategies and how to best implement them.
