Bio

Hi, I’m Carly! My movement journey started as a professional dancer, which naturally led me to discover barre ten years ago and I’ve never looked back. I’ve since added Pilates to my practice, and today, my classes are a true blend of the two.

I have a deep passion for beat-driven movement, using rhythm to connect not just with the physical body, but with the emotional self. As a psychotherapist in training, I intentionally weave mental health and mindfulness practices into my sessions to create a full mind-and-body experience.

My philosophy is simple: absolutely everyone is welcome in my classes, regardless of age, body type, ability, or gender. This is your space to show up exactly as you are, and I can’t wait to move with you.
