"Nearly 6 months after taking my first class with Mariela, I am now completely pain free for the first time in my adult life, which as anyone who has suffered from chronic, debilitating pain can tell you, is nothing short of life-changing." 

​

I am a highly specialized Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher and Pregnancy and Postpartum. Corrective Exercise Specialist. With over 10 years of experience working in clinical and studio settings, I bring a nurturing and detail-oriented approach to helping my clients discover their greatest movement potential. My background in pelvic floor rehabilitation, neuromuscular re-education, and trauma-informed instruction, allows me to specialize in helping those managing complex chronic pain conditions such as endometriosis, pelvic floor dysfunction, and lower back pain. I feel especially passionate about helping prenatal and postpartum individuals deepen their connection with their bodies and gaining trust their innate strength through every stage of motherhood. ​I received my 450 hour Pilates teacher training through Polestar Pilates and have pursued advanced certifications in Pregnancy & Postpartum Corrective Exercise, Pilates for Neurological Conditions, and Midlife Exercise for Osteoporosis & Joint Pain.

​

Besides working one-on-one, I love teaching teachers and have facilitated continuing education workshops around the topics of the Pelvic Floor, Pilates for Endometriosis, and Pre-Post Natal Pilates.​​​​​​​​
