Instructors

I grew up in a family that owned a dance studio and started teaching dance when I was 12 years old and started helping my mom run the business at 16.  After moving away, getting married and starting my own family I fell in love with fitness.  It was my one hour a day I'd block out the world and all the crazy things in life and just take care of me!  

I created Powercore because I wanted a 

place that you could sneak away from reality and feel welcomed, loved and strong! 

 I bring all my passion when I teach and love seeing my clients realize that they are stronger than they think! 

I love all different types of fitness and 

after having my first baby decided to 

jump on the opportunity of opening

 a studio with my sister.  

We knew we wanted to be different 

and not only offer one type of workout,

 but all of our favorites!   

The year we opened I had a set of twin 

girls and in 2022 had our caboose.  (Maybe!) Our family has recently moved to

 California but I will still be involved

 in the business side and have promised

 my sisters to visit AZ and 

will be back in the studio lots!

  I grew up here in Gilbert, Arizona. I am married with 3 kids 3 and under!  I love being a wife and mom! But my 3rd love is fitness! When I graduated high school in 201,1 I started working at a gym as a front desk associate and being able to see how fitness positively affected people everyday made me so happy! I have been teaching Pilates and group fitness since Powercore opened in 2016! I love creating workouts that push people to do things they never thought they could. Not only do I get to work with my actually family (Taya and Kinzi) I also get to work with all of our amazing Powercore Family! Always an “Easy Day” when you are surrounded by the best people!
 

  I have been teaching Pilates

 for 6 years now.  

I grew up dancing from the age of two 

and was a participant of a performing

 dance team for several years.  

When getting a Bachelor's Degree in Dance Education I was introduced to Pilates and quickly developed a love for the workout.

 I enjoy combining both of these passions to inspire how I construct my Pilates classes. 

I am so excited to be apart of this amazing studio and be surrounded by so many extraordinary people!  

 I am a lifelong dancer with a passion for fitness. I have lived in Arizona for the past 20 years and have spent most of my time teaching competitive dance. I received my BFA in dance from the University of Arizona and was introduced to Pilates while in college. I really fell in love with Pilates after taking classes at PowerCore. I finally decided to get certified in 2020 and have enjoyed teaching for the past 2 years. I enjoy pushing my clients to their full potential and love to see them get stronger every week! When I'm not teaching Pilates or dance, I love to 

spend time with my three beautiful 

children and husband.  

 I was a competitive snowboarder for 

many years,  which left me with a 

chronic neck injury.
I found Pilates to build muscles in my 

core and back to support my injury.
I fell in love with it immediately!
After 15 years of Pilates I am pain free 

and stronger than ever.
I teach a combination of classical and contemporary Pilates. I combine slow elongating moves with weights and 

upbeat reps for an all over burn.
My goal is for you to leave every class feeling leaner, stronger and completely energized.
 

 With an extensive background in the 

dance and fitness industry, I have 

been teaching barre for 6+ years.

 I bring grace, athleticism, and flow

 into each class at PowerCore.

 I graduated from Utah 

Valley University with a bachelors degree

 in health for secondary education.

 I am AFAA group certified, a High Fitness GURU, and have taught many other group fitness formats including TRX, 

HIGH Yo, bounce, stroller classes, 

and small group training.
