"Change happens through movement and movement heals." - Joseph Pilates

Andrea began her teaching career in dance and fitness throughout Los Angeles, finding Pilates twenty years ago when a debilitating illness left her barely able to walk after over seventeen years of being a fit and accomplished dancer. With the help of pilates, she was able to strengthen and create a balance in her body that made her stronger than ever before. Soon after her pilates rehab, she became certified. Continuing as a dancer and fitness instructor with emphasis on rehabilitation to help others achieve the same results. Andrea is one of the most sought out instructors by physical therapists and studios in the pilates field for being able to read the body in front of her and having the knowledge to be versatile, dynamic and malleable so the client continues to evolve.
