Franklin Method Educators & Trainers

Christy originally stepped into the Pilates world in 1995 while dancing with Midland Festival Ballet. She began her study under the tutelage of 2nd generation teacher Judy Coleman (who studied under Carola Trier). Pilates was the missing link for Christy to rid herself of chronic knee pain due to muscular imbalances while dancing with MFB.

She continued studying Pilates while earning her Bachelor’s Degree in both Dance and English from Chapman University in Orange, CA and in 2006 was compelled to share the method’s incredible benefits with others. She received her Comprehensive Teacher Training Pilates certification from Body Arts and Sciences International (BASI) in Costa Mesa, CA under the instruction of Real Isacowitz.

Her professional teaching career began at the Cypress Center in Pacific Palisades, California where Christy worked with Physical Therapy “graduates,” high level athletes, and everyone in between. She continued developing her own client base and business throughout Southern California until returning home to Texas in 2016.

Over the last 16 years, Christy has continued to pursue excellence in her teaching through additional coursework. Among these she has completed the following:

The Foundational Bodywork Program through the Institute of Psyco-Structural Balancing (ISPB) (120 hours)
Holistic Health Coach Certification through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition
Pre and Postnatal Pilates Certification through the Center for Women’s Fitness
Franklin Method Level 1 Educator Certification

Christy is excited to share the many benefits of movement through Pilates and the Franklin Method with the residents of the Texas Hill Country. She aims for every client to walk away from class feeling better than when they came in and understanding their bodies more fully.
