I’ve been into Pilates since 2009. It was something that I was curious about. When I entered the class I was the ONLY black girl. I was like what is wrong this is a great exercise for balance.

She’s AMAZING & guess what she has CURVES. What more could you ask for in an instructor. I really LOVE her!

It was such a pleasure to talk with you after all these years. As I was contemplating an exercise program and Pilates again, you immediately came to mind. You were a remarkable personal trainer for me and I can't wait to get back.

This class is awesome. I feel longer and more aligned. I got my sweat on and felt safe with every exercise. I love her humor and joy. Dance and Pilates is such a great mix of cardio, strengthening and FUN!
