FAVOURITE QUOTE TO LIVE BY

WHY DO YOU LOVE NEUMOVEMENT?
NeuMovement's concept of offering both pilates and physiotherapy in an integrated space is innovative and unique. I believe this is an amazing atmosphere where people are supported throughout the continuum of care. Clients can initiate their rehab journey with a physiotherapist, and progress toward functional independence with the help of a movement educator like a pilates instructor. I am looking forward to being surrounded by a great team of individuals who are just as passionate about getting people moving and feeling their best!
WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU OUTSIDE THE STUDIO/CLINIC?
I enjoy most outdoor activities, and am usually open to trying anything at least once. My favourite team sport to play is field hockey, and the sport I would most like to improve in is soccer. I've also completed a few half marathons, so my next goal is to train for a sprint distance triathlon! I also love traveling and exploring new places. Last year, my boyfriend and I did a whirlwind train trip around Europe; we visited 7 countries in 3 weeks! When I'm not in the clinic, I am often dreaming up my next adventure abroad. We are hoping to visit Australia and New Zealand soon!
FAVOURITE DAY OFF ACTIVITY?
In the winter, I love spending time in the mountains snowboarding and snowshoeing. In the summer, I enjoy hiking, camping, road and mountain biking, and running. And exploring different wineries of course!
