Wellness Consultations
I more often than not catch myself wishing I took better care of myself at twenty or thirty I've grown up and learned so much about my internal and external health and I want to teach you before you start looking into surgeries!
start young
Maybe you started off great, you were a confident young lady, but then you had kids, got busy, got sucked into your career and kind of forgot about your health and wellness. Let me help get your health, your skin, your wardrobe, and your confidence back on track!
get back on track
You probably have told yourself before, "eh it's too late this is just how I am now". But let me be the first (or maybe not the first) to tell you that it IS NOT too late. I thought I was skinny and fit for the longest time until I found out I had a leaky gut at 40 years old. I'll be fifty this year and I can honestly say, I have never been more fit, tight, and toned! Let me help you get there!
it's never too late
I have lived through the years of unhealthy habits, toxic relationships, and raising two beautiful girls. All of my years of experience in and out of health, meeting with doctors, growing emotionally and physically, and I am ready to share my experience and help others gain back their confidence, or ensure they never lose it! I helped my best friend lose one hundred pounds, upgrade her wardrobe, and introduce her to doctors who helped us both heal inside and out! Let me introduce you, and get you the confidence you deserve!

By the time individuals reach their 50s, many have experienced some form of trauma, and Pilates can serve as a powerful tool for healing and muscle building. This low-impact exercise method emphasizes core strength, alignment, and mind-body awareness, making it particularly beneficial for rehabilitation, especially for those recovering from injuries or managing chronic pain. As traditional insurance models in the United States face challenges, Pilates is increasingly being integrated into physical therapy practices, with many studios dedicating private spaces for therapeutic sessions that cater to all ages—from children to seniors. While Pilates may not completely replace conventional physical therapy or provide the same level of muscle hypertrophy as traditional strength training, its adaptability and focus on holistic well-being position it as a valuable complement in the journey toward recovery and improved physical health.

I’ve always been fit, but I never truly enjoyed working out—until someone recommended Pilates. After my first three classes, I was hooked; 550 classes later, it has transformed my life. As I approach my 50s, I grapple with significant anxiety and trauma, but I’ve discovered that the breathing and mind-body connection inherent in Pilates has helped me better manage my nervous system. During a year-long training program to become a certified instructor, I found a supportive community that felt like a sanctuary amidst the chaos of parenting. In this space, focus is essential; you must stay connected to the class and attentive to the cues, which keeps your mind from wandering. There’s even research showing that Pilates can slow cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s patients by engaging the brain—the body’s largest muscle. I've witnessed athletes, including players from the Texans and Astros, using Pilates for injury recovery, proving its accessibility for everyone. Today, I am in better shape than I was 22 years ago when I first began my Pilates journey. The impact on my mental health and trauma has been nothing short of life-changing. Alongside Pilates, I sought help from a hormone doctor to address issues like “skinny fat” and leaky gut, which motivated me to adopt a cleaner diet. After six months of training, I knew I wanted to open my own studio. I spent a year and a half searching for the right place until I found House of Core on Instagram. When I reached out to the owner—a wonderful woman—she initially expressed reluctance about franchising. However, after sharing my passion and extensive experience with various studios worldwide, she agreed to partner with me. House of Core is not just a studio; it feels like home—a true sanctuary where everyone can thrive.
