Pilates Instructor | Cordova Bay
Areas of Expertise: Back Pain, Scoliosis, Group Facilitation, Persistent Pain, Whole Body Strength and Conditioning, Crystal Singing Bowl Sound Bath
Lisa was first introduced to the Pilates method during her career as a professional dancer. After retiring due to injury, and since completing her comprehensive teacher training in 2007, she's had the pleasure of witnessing the profound effects the regular practice of Pilates-based movement can have on the well-being of her clients. People get stronger. They develop confidence in moving again after injury, long- term pain, or being deconditioned. Welcomed unconditionally into a community of like-minded movers at Tall Tree, they feel better in their bodies and minds, and those differences inevitably filter out into their lives beyond the studio.
Lisa enjoys working with a wide spectrum of movers, from beginners to elite athletes and dancers. As a Clinical Pilates Instructor, she specializes in supporting people with chronic conditions, particularly lower back pain. Through movement education, curiosity, and consistent practice, she helps clients better understand their bodies and build the strength and confidence needed to achieve their goals. Those who work with Lisa often describe her sessions as both physically challenging and deeply rewarding, guided by progressive feedback in a supportive and engaging environment.
Drawing on her own journey with persistent pain, Lisa's hope is help people live full, embodied lives regardless of circumstance. This perspective continues to shape her life both personally and professionally. In addition to her Pilates training, Lisa is also a clinical counsellor, and her background in this field further enriches the whole-person approach she brings to working with her clients.
When not in the clinic, you can find Lisa either out in nature, enjoying her own personal movement practices, reading, filling up with family and good friends, or satisfying her ever-present curiosity through various courses and podcasts.
