At 14, when most middle school students are shy and adjusting to new challenges, I discovered Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. What began as a new hobby soon became a transformative journey. It helped me break out of my shell, turning my shyness into confidence and my sensitivity into a positive, optimistic outlook on life.

Through this journey, I learned the truth of the saying, *a healthy body creates a healthy mind.* This mindset helped me achieve my dream of becoming a national athlete, earning the title of 2020 National Reserve Athlete for Jiu-Jitsu.

However, the intense training and repetitive postures eventually took a toll on my body. That’s when I found Pilates. Its gentle yet effective movements not only helped rehabilitate my physical condition but also strengthened my mental resilience. Pilates became a passion, blending strength, control, and mindfulness in a way that deeply inspired me. This led me to earn my certifications and begin my career as a Pilates instructor.

As an instructor, I’ve discovered immense joy in helping my clients transform their bodies and minds. Witnessing their progress and happiness fuels my love for what I do. My mission is to share the power of Pilates and guide others toward healthier, more balanced lives.
