Melissa's journey into Pilates began as a quest to enhance her athletic performance and safeguard against injuries while maintaining her active lifestyle. As a soccer player and lifelong athlete, she sought a method that would bolster her core strength, flexibility, and joint health. Pilates emerged as the perfect solution, leading Melissa to pursue comprehensive teacher training through Club Pilates.
In addition to her Pilates training, Melissa holds certifications from Barre Above, TRX suspension training, and the Buff Bones Osteoporosis Exercise Method. Continuously dedicated to expanding her knowledge and expertise, she enrolled in the Classical bridge program through Classical Pilates USA and The Pilates Loft. This commitment allows Melissa to deepen her own practice and refine her teaching methods, ensuring she can effectively serve her clients with compassion and expertise.
