I found strength, connection, and purpose through a community that believed in the power of movement, and that inspiration is at the heart of Rise & Reform.
My journey began more than 15 years ago while earning my yoga certification in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand. During this time, I worked with NGOs supporting survivors of human trafficking, using trauma-informed yoga, breathwork, and meditation to help restore physical and emotional healing. This is where I fell in love with bodywork and saw firsthand how the body keeps the score and how movement can create safety, strength, and transformation.
Pilates became the next chapter. Through classical training and comprehensive Peak Pilates certification on all apparatus, I rebuilt my body after motherhood and rediscovered my purpose as a teacher and healer. What started in a small garage studio has grown into Rise & Reform one of the top Pilates studios in Naples, Florida, known for classical Pilates, reformer training, rehabilitation-focused sessions, and whole-body transformation.
I teach from lived experience, combining trauma-informed movement, Pilates for rehabilitation, and mind-body healing. My mission is to help you reform old patterns, reconnect with your strength, and rise into who you are meant to be.
Rise & Reform is more than a Pilates studio. It is a space for healing, alignment, strength, and true transformation through classical and reformer Pilates in Naples, Florida.
