Meet Deanna

I know how frustrating chronic pain can be. That’s why I’ve dedicated my career to helping people find relief through Pilates and Qi Gong.

You’ve tried everything—strength training classes, doctors, physical therapy, even medication—but nothing has fully worked. The pain lingers, returns after every golf round or run, limiting your movement and affecting your daily life. 


You’re not alone. I’m here to help.

Every small step moves you closer to change. Let’s start your journey to pain-free movement.

MY STORY

Pilates found me at a time when my dance career had ended, and I was navigating navigating various changes in my body, an ankle injury, and feelings of anxiety. It became the healthiest way for me to reconnect with my body.

What started as personal healing grew into a passion for helping others move better, feel stronger, and regain confidence. Now, as a fully certified Pilates instructor with 10 years of experience and a Registered Canine Massage Therapist, I guide both humans and dogs through every stage of healing. Years later, I integrated Qi Gong into my practice, deepening my awareness of movement and energy to support my clients beyond just the physical.
