My own healing journey from PTSD led me to explore the power of breath, and I found the Oxygen Advantage method to be truly transformative. As a second-generation Classical Pilates teacher, I was immediately drawn to how its science-backed approach beautifully complements Pilates, deepens our understanding of the breathing exercises already embedded in Joe Pilates’ original system, and adds another layer to instruction by helping us recognize dysfunctional breathing patterns in clients.
With over 20 years of experience as a Classical Pilates teacher, I have trained with some of the most respected teachers in the Pilates lineage, including the late Jay Grimes, a first-generation teacher who trained directly with Joe Pilates himself. My background in the original Pilates method, combined with my Oxygen Advantage training, allows me to support clients and other Pilates teachers through a three-dimensional approach to functional breathing: biochemistry, biomechanics, and psychophysiological regulation.
I teach both online and in person in Los Angeles, making it possible for students anywhere in the world to train with me. Whether you are a Pilates practitioner, Pilates teacher, athlete, or simply someone who wants to breathe better in order to move and feel better, I am here to help you build a stronger connection to your breath, your body, and your practice.
