The PILATES REFORMER MACHINE
The Pilates Reformer is Simply AMAZING!
Typically found in exclusive Pilates studios or in Physical Rehabilitation clinics, this machine can quite literally do it all! This "One-stop-shop" provides a cardiovascular, strength training and flexibility regime that is ever evolving for the user. There are so many exercises that can be performed on this apparatus! Routines become a collection of ever-changing movements and body positions, working in all planes, enabling the participant to use their own body as resistance and also as an extension of the machine for a full, all-inclusive workout! The more experience one has working on the machine, the more benefit and effect one receives from doing the work on it. Since most of the exercises are performed on the moving platform, the core is continuously activated and stabilizing throughout the movements for the entire duration of the workout. The design of the machine allows it's user to work each and every body part at full ROM (Range of Motion) with little to no detriment to the joints, resulting in maximum muscle activation & flexibility. Professional and Olympic athletes swear by it's benefits! Physical Therapists deem it a wonder machine for Physical Rehabilitation! With appropriate guidance, this apparatus is a safe, effective & fun exercise tool for anyone and everyone! |
OWNER/INSTRUCTOR
My first passion of movement was Yoga. I began my individual home yoga practice at age 17. I also began weight lifting, at a local gym, and eventually began to take several different types of fitness classes in an effort to combat anxiety and depression. It worked!!! My first employment position in fitness was at a Gold’s Gym in 1994. I began to learn the “behind the scenes” inner workings of fitness management working the front desk and slowly began to integrate hands on fitness training to work with clientele in a group setting and one-on-one. Over the last few decades since, I have studied to teach various different types of Yoga including Hatha, Ashtanga and Vinyasa. I became a Certified Group Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer in 2000, and continued my studies to include Resistance Training and Weight management, Indoor Cycling, Kickboxing, Kettle bell Conditioning, Zumba, Body Pump, Senior Fitness, TRX, Aquatic Therapy & Fitness, Pilates Mat, Pilates Reformer and Barre. I have worked with literally thousands of clients over the years and have enjoyed every minute of it! The various forms of movement that I have studied over time have given me the knowledge base and experience needed to open this studio in 2018 with 8 of those “Magic Machines" (We have grown now to have 14 :). I am also a musician/vocalist and fitness choreographer so I design each and every class with detail to rhythmic, motivational movement set to fun, inspiring and upbeat music. I feel so blessed to be able to share my passion of music and movement with those who have followed me over the years and so excited to be introduced to new SOLs each and every day on this journey!
My ultimate goal is to meet you where you are...no matter what age, level of condition or physical limitation you may have and to provide a space that is conducive to that purpose. I'm here to guide & accompany you into a physical, intimate & hopefully inspirational practice of movement that is safe, effective and lots of fun! Because...
If it's not fun, do you really wanna do it ?!?
Join me on the Journey!
It's time to hop aboard the SOL Train!!
