About Bodywize Pilates

---

 One of my favorite quotes from Joseph Pilates is "Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness."  Working in the fitness industry as a  personal trainer, club director, and movement instructor has led me to understand 'wellness' instead of  'fitness'.  I have been practicing and teaching Pilates for over 20 years. Through this journey I have gained an intense appreciation and an insatiable curiosity for the complexity of our human bodies - but also the beautiful simplicity of care that we need.  I am never surprised  by the healing nature of Pilates, but  I am always inspired.  For years I have seen the truth of Joe's work... Return To Life.  It is extraordinary to witness, when given the right path and the right tools, people can change their lives. At Bodywize we promote wellness and vitality so that you can live, play and enjoy your life with 'spontaneous zest and pleasure'!

I invite you to visit our studio and speak with our clients. The common thread you will find in speaking with them is "I just feel good!".  I see exercise programs come and go, some with great results, but most are temporary and the 'side effects' are sore, tight muscles, which in turn wreak havoc on your joints and ultimately will lead you away from your sense of wellness and vitality.  I have always considered Pilates to be the 'Fountain of Youth' - and that is inclusive - Body, Mind, and Spirit - it is all profoundly connected!  A regular practice of Pilates brings youthfulness to your physical body, your mind, and restores and replenishes the energy of your spirit.
