I spend part of my time professionally shedding my clothes on stage regularly as an aerial burlesque artist, so it probably comes as a surprise that I was once very scared of showing the world who I am. Or it completely makes sense that I have turned to burlesque now that I have found who I am. It either makes complete sense or it’s confusing as hell.

Starting a business is also a different level of introspection. At one point I was NOT going to treat aerialists. I was going to hide my naughty burlesque background. I wasnt going to have any pink in my logo!

Being able to be myself has been the greatest reward in every endeavor, whether it’s been on stage or within my business. To my clients and patients that let me be goofy with them, you give me so much life!

Healthcare doesn’t have to be boring! It can be pink and sparkly and still effective! 💕💖🌸

It’s the return of the flower mic 🎤 💐

I love setting big goals and I love seeing other people set them, but as someone who has been in the fitness space for a verrryyyy long time I know what I would do and what I wouldnt do if I had to do it over again!

Small, achievable changes that’ll last you forever is much better than life altering changes that youll give up once the “challenge” is over!

Make one small change! Mine is waking up a tiny bit earlier, what is yours?

I’ve been a fitness professional for manyyyyyy cycles of New Year’s resolutions and I’ve seen my fair share of goals met and forgotten!

Whatever you’re looking to change- whether it’s a new exercise program or a new diet, if you make changes that you can keep up, for the long run, youll be a new person by the end of 2026.

Sound simple? Have you tried it though?! Try these few things and I promise your life will change!

Which one sounds doable to you? (If none of them do, I’d love to hear why!)

Physical therapy, strength and conditioning and being your greatest cheerleader is what I do 🫶🏻❤️ this is such a silly sound I had to use it hehehe

2026 I want to help MORE aerialists and circus artists reach their goals!

In addition to being a therapist and strength and conditioning coach I now offer dry needling sessions for those that have had relief with it before! Don’t know if youd be a candidate for it? Complimentary consultations always available for you!

Happy training!

Starting my own business has been the single greatest decision I’ve made for myself but it is among one of the most scariest decisions I ever made for myself as well. I recently ran into a family friend that I had spoken to last Thanksgiving about starting my own business and she asked me where I was at. She reminded me that exactly a year ago, I was just thinking about it, REALLY thinking about it, but I hadn’t even incorporated or picked out a business name yet. I was scared.

Every month in my planner, I write down a reflection of what I learned that month and what I will take forward into the future with my business. Here’s a glimpse of the many lessons that I’ve learned this year so far along with my favorite looks that I’ve done as a performance artist balancing performing starting a business and working another job is not for the weak! But it had to be done.

Feeling lazy? You’re just 30 seconds away! Thats right 30 seconds!

It’s the magic number to increase your range of motion! Shoot for 30 seconds to a minute, everything after that is extra credit!

Of course, you should start with a warm up (get a little sweat on!) but I know how it goes, make sure you listen to your body and ease into it!

Happy stretching!

Want to learn specific stretches for your body? I’m taking on a limited number of students to learn from me! Let me teach you! 🫶🏻❤️

Last weekend I performed my favorite way to close out my burlesque performances, titanic! It’s a crazy looking trick!

A little background on lower body anatomy and it looks a lot less like black magic and magic b***y hole grip and more like something maybe you can give a shot!

If this was helpful, let me know! I’d love to break down more physics of pole dancing in the future!

Are you still using RICE? Thats so 2008, let’s get up to date! (I had to, I’m sorry)

Dr Gabe Mirkin first came up with the trusty old acronym RICE in the 70s but he later rescinded this, as newer evidence has shown that rest is not the answer! The hardest part about the ever changing nature of science is that once something is SUPER catchy, like his original acronym, it’s realllly hard to correct course.

The new acronym PEACE & LOVE (I will never stop saying how ridiculous it sounds 😂) is quite clunky HOWEVER it encompasses new evidence that fosters early loading, activity and very important to me, the mental aspect of healing!

It’s not perfect but it’s a great update on RICE! As always, when in doubt, reach out to a medical professional! Appointments available this week!

Hi there! A little bit of background about your me, your physical therapist! I do things a little different because WE move a little different but I’m sure there’s some things about me that you’ll see and say, ah, yes that totally tracks.

I had a winding path to finding the aerial arts but now I’m so happy to be able to combine my love of performing with my professional career as a physical therapist!

Ready to work with me? I have appointments available this week! Let’s get to work! Link in my bio!
