Michelle began her passion for movement through classical and contemporary ballet. Michelle has danced with Ballet Austin, City Ballet of San Diego, and the LINES Ballet Professional Training program in San Francisco. Through working professionally in a demanding physical field, she has encountered prohibiting injuries, particularly with the spine. It is through Pilates, Michelle has been able to rehabilitate from a severe back injury and continue to strengthen and correct postural deviations that have caused these injuries. Michelle is working as a Pilates Instructor for Center Studio located in the Castro and is looking forward to giving to the community what she has learned through her own physical challenges and goals as an athlete and knowledge of what Pilates can do for the body as a whole.
