Jay brings a passion and enthusiasm for all things Pilates, health & fitness:

“I love being a PT and Pilates instructor because movement has always been so important to me.

Pilates and exercise are truly close to my heart, especially after experiencing a back injury that became one of my lowest points. It was through that challenge that I found a whole new appreciation for movement and its power to heal, strengthen, and uplift.

Now, I get to help others feel strong, confident, and capable in their own bodies! Creating a supportive space where people enjoy working out and feel good doing it is what I’m all about.”
