Hi, my name is Leslie and I am a biomechanics specialist.

Throughout my 13 year career as a professional rock climber and guide, I experienced countless injuries that lead to a cycle of chronic pain. Pilates took me out of that cycle, changing my life and posture in ways I never thought possible. Being born with scoliosis and club foot has made me quite injury prone, but with a customized Pilates program I have developed better proprioception, posture and core support that has improved my movement patterns in sport and life. This personal journey inspired me to teach Pilates and empower others to move and feel better too.
