Meet Sandra
As the owner of Core Integrity, my background as a former high-level athlete and ballet dancer provides me with a deep understanding of the importance of proper movement and alignment in achieving peak physical performance and preventing injury.
15 years ago, I was recommended to try Pilates to strengthen my core and low back issues after my last pregnancy that led to a sustained healthy lifestyle that has impacted my overall well-being. Six years ago, I made the bold choice to become a Pilates instructor, driven by my desire to help people live their best lives. By sharing my passion and knowledge for Pilates, I wanted to impact the lives of many individuals by helping them improve their physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life.
In addition to my Pilates training, I also have additional certifications and training in areas such as anatomy, biomechanics, active aging and post-rehabilitation which further enhances my ability to help clients improve their movement and function. This specialized knowledge and expertise allows me to provide a unique and highly effective approach to Pilates instruction, making me stand out in the field.
My decision to become a Pilates instructor is a true testament to my dedication to helping others, and my willingness to invest my time and energy into a career that is focused on positively impacting the lives of those around me.
