Carolyn’s Journey to Pilates
Since childhood, Carolyn has participated in dance and a variety of athletics. As an adult, she began running, working out with personal trainers, and enjoyed every cardio class she ever tried. Curious about the wonderful world of Pilates, Carolyn took her first mat Pilates class more than ten years ago and discovered that she had all sorts of untapped muscles that hadn’t been strengthened through other forms of exercise. She continued and increased her mat Pilates practice, which eventually led her to discover (with great joy) the Reformer, Cadillac, Ladder Barrel, and other Pilates equipment to unwind and realign her body.
She joined our Westwood Pilates team at Sheppard Method Pilates for the sophisticated, intimate charm, and excellent selection of equipment. Now, Carolyn enjoys the warm, friendly community that her clients enjoy. Small enough for friendly chats, yet large enough to feel vibrant and buzzy in the morning and after-work hours, Carolyn adores providing each Sheppard Method Pilates client with the best possible Pilates experience.
