Classes

What can students expect from your class?

My classes are focused on effective movement and strengthening for all levels and all bodies. Expect a full body workout with an emphasis on core, alignment and precise muscle activation.

About Me

I’m Shawna (she/her). A lifelong athlete and teacher, I was inspired to start my journey in Pilates 6 years ago as a means of recovery after experiencing a chronic back injury. Coming from a science background, I quickly began learning all I could about Pilates and mindful movement for injury recuperation. And, naturally, began to share everything I learned with anyone who would listen. Today, I spend most of my day in motion, sharing my passion for effective movement with healthy and injured bodies alike. I teach with a focus on fun, accessible movement in a style that is grounded in my STOTT pilates training, while also incorporating elements of clinical pilates, yoga, functional fitness and the new things I learn every day about how to keep your body moving happily.
