I have a lifelong relationship with athletics including long distance running, water sports and generally just loving the out-of-doors. After 40, I discovered high altitude mountaineering and technical rock climbing. These activities challenge me on new levels – physically, mentally, and emotionally. This is also when I gained courage to resign from a large corporation and began teaching fitness professionally.

I'm a certified and designated Pilates Instructor (PhysicalMind Institute, New York, NY and Phoenix, AZ) and have a wonderful studio space in which to work in Silver City, NM for mat exercise classes and equipment training. I am educated in the body's biomechanics - understanding the way we are meant to move. I analyze posture and stride and retrain clients to walk, stand or sit more efficiently and without pain.
