History
Established in 2003.
In 2003, I started ProActive Pilates, a health and wellness studio incorporating pilates, yoga and body rolling with eight instructors working under me. It was a fun and exciting period in my career. After enjoying the beach, the food and the lifestyle of Kitsilano for eight years, our family and ProActive Pilates moved to Port Coquitlam, BC in 2010 when we welcomed our second daughter into the world. As our views towards health and our bodies shifts and evolves, so does the way I approach my work. I continue to take many courses in women's health, Stott Pilates, Pfilates, Zen-ga (fascial fitness), Stretch Therapy and Fascial Fitness. I teach my clients the techniques that improve core activation and stabilization patterns, mobility and agility. Postural changes implemented into your daily activities and creating symmetry and balance through repetition, will help reduce pain, stiffness and tension in the body.

I have been a national team athlete. I have conquered cancer three times. I have been a physio for 22+ years and I teach individuals to incorporate core activation into everyday functional activities.
