our story.

After 20+ years working in the Healthcare Industry, I bring a unique perspective to wellness.  As a licensed clinical pharmacist, I’ve seen many patients struggle with chronic conditions and ailments that often could have been prevented with diet and exercise.  My own health and wellness journey over the years has centered around my passion for promoting health and well-being.  In practicing Pilates and other forms of exercise, I have seen the powerful transformation Pilates has on the mind-body connection and overall holistic approach to functional wellness.

Rachel was first introduced to Pilates by a friend for a girl’s night out. She couldn’t believe it when the class was over. She had worked muscles she didn’t know existed and felt focused and energized.  Rachel ultimately decided the best way to learn more was to learn the entire program and become a teacher. In 2009, Rachel enrolled in the 475-hour training program through Balanced Body and earned her certification in 2010.  

Over the years of practicing, Rachel found her method and style of teaching.
