Meet the Business Owner: Rachel R.
I have owned and operated Energy Within Pilates for over 25 years.
I discovered Pilates at 35 and enhanced my quest to understand the body.
A mother of three, I taught fitness classes and was a massage therapist. I was uncomfortable in my body, never sitting or standing still for any length of time without moving or stretching. I had broken several bones, sliced a couple tendons in my foot and ended up with a twist in my pelvis.
Pilates totally changed my life. I have learned much about the body and movement through understanding how my own body works, heals, and stays healthy.
Each person is unique, but the principles of movement remain the same. For every movement it's important to understand the fundamentals: which muscles stabilize and which mobilize the bones.
I ensure that every client is taught to connect with their body and control their movements. I am an active and attentive teacher, observing and correcting everyone in my classes for proper, controlled movements.
