Brandi brings a wealth of professional and life experience in the field of movement and bodywork. Brandi is a STOTT certified Mat and Reformer Pilates Instructor, and a CAMTC certified massage therapist. Originally from Santa Cruz, CA, Brandi was a pole vaulter for Cal Poly San Luis Obispo before a spine injury redirected her path.

Brandi takes a compassionate approach to all her sessions, having experienced first-hand, the life-changing impact of severe chronic pain. She is the ultimate proponent for Pilates, which allowed her to postpone spinal surgery for 22 years and she is now experiencing the profound difference both Pilates and massage can make in the healing process following a spinal fusion. |
