What would you do if you won $1 million?
I can tell you this much, I wouldn’t be cooking dinner for a while!
What is your favorite 90's song?
Anything Whitney Houston.
If you could be any animal, what would you be?
My elderly dog seems pretty happy just chasing sunny spots around the house and sleeping 20 hours a day.
What's the last thing you watched on tv?
Real Housewives of Potomac
Were Ross and Rachel on a break? lol
I mean technically sure, YES, but I agree with Rachel on this and on all things.
What is the best advice you've ever heard?
“Don’t forget what you know.”
What would you like to be known for?
In a serious way I’d like to be known for being someone you can come to in good times or bad as a listening ear, for being loyal and transparent. I also wouldn’t mind being known as the friend to come to for reality TV gossip, coffee runs, and knowing the best burrito spots!
Last meal?
My husband makes amazing sourdough so that with a really good butter…mmm!
Your advice to anyone new to High Intensity Pilates??
Have grace with yourself. If it feels hard it’s because it was designed to be hard, so don’t question your own abilities and strength!
Certifications:
Mad Dogg Spin
Lagree
SRT Pilates
Over the last decade I have taught classes in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Oakland.
In 2013 I became certified by Madd Dog to coach spin, a few months later I earned my certification in Lagree Fitness from world renowned fitness trainer Piper Michelle, and in 2018 I earned an additional certification for Slow Resistance Training again with Piper Michelle.
These last ten years of coaching High Intensity Pilates have allowed me to see how special it can be to create a community and build friendships through fitness. It only felt right to build a fitness community right here in my hometown of El Cerrito. Nothing brings me more joy than coaching clients through a fun and satisfying sweat!
My mission is to build an inclusive and supportive space for fitness lovers (and maybe those who don’t know they love fitness yet) to come together and move.
