Mel’s love for movement began in high school after being exposed to Pilates. She loved how it felt so different from other types of fitness. She began teaching mat classes in college, and then went on to receive her Comprehensive Pilates Certification through BASI (Body Arts and Science International) in 2015. A few years later, she discovered her true passion, helping people get out of pain. Despite her endless pursuit of continuing education and seeking out other methods of movement to blend in with her Pilates practice, it wasn’t until she discovered PRI (Postural Restoration Institute), that her practice really shifted. PRI opened her mind in a way that completely transformed the way she sees and teaches movement.

Today, she strives to share her passion for PRI to help reduce pain, to uncover someone’s true potential in whatever activity they love to do, and to educate people on how to move through life in a more efficient and safe way.

Mel enjoys playing tennis, rock climbing, cooking and spending time with her two children.
