Pilates

What Is Pilates?

Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that builds core strength, improves posture, and increases flexibility. It focuses on controlled movements, breathwork, and body awareness.

Originally created by German fitness innovator Joseph Pilates in the 1920’s for injury recovery, he and his ballet partner Clara Zeuner collaborated to introduce Pilates to dancers and athletes looking to train smarter and recover faster, building greater overall body strength. Pilates is now used by people of all fitness levels for strength, balance, and overall wellness. Pilates, like Yoga, connects the body and the mind, improving flexibility and balance, but emphasizes on core control, alignment and strength through fluid, structured movement. I studied the original teachings of Joseph Pilates while also being certified through Pilates Method Alliance and PEAK since 2004.

How It Works

You can do Pilates on a mat or with equipment like a reformer.
Classes typically last 45–60 minutes and follow a set series of precise exercises (like The Hundred, Swan, and Criss-Cross).

Sessions are slow, focused, and build in intensity over time.

Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis Overview

Hypnotherapy, also known as hypnosis, is a state of focused attention, heightened relaxation, and increased suggestibility. It is typically guided by a health care provider using verbal repetition and mental imagery. While under hypnosis, individuals remain aware and in control, but are more open to behavioral suggestions that they desire to assist in healing, medical procedures, childbirth, or more.

Hypnosis can be used to:

• Support behavior change (ex: addictions, weight management…)

• Help manage anxiety

• Alleviate pain

Despite the altered state of awareness, individuals do not lose control during a hypnosis session. They are in complete control and completely aware at all times.

I studied at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America in Santa Fe, New Mexico starting in 2007 and received certifications in:

• Therapeutic Hypnosis I and II

• Inner Wisdom, Self-Esteem and Healing

• Clinical Medicine Procedures

• Clinical Childbirth

• Pre-Birth, Natal and Past-Life Regression

• Creative Neurolinguistic Programming Beginners through Advanced
