Surrounded by the beautiful
mountains and coastline of the Olympic Peninsula, Gina grew
up with a family who loved exploring the outdoors. Hiking,
biking, swimming, kayaking and paddling canoes, there was
never a dull moment. After completing a degree in Radiologic
Technology, Gina practiced CT, MRI, and mammography for 10
years. Gina particularly enjoyed helping patients and their
families, and being able to communicate details about the
procedures they were about to undergo. Working in a teaching
facility allowed her the time and flexibility to spend time
with patients in that way. |

A family
move relocated her to Rockville, MD, and a five-year career
in the IT field. The time spent sitting at a desk was not
beneficial, and left her back, neck, and shoulders in poor
alignment. Receiving a present of a book about Pilates, Gina
began to learn the technique from the book and videos.
Between Pilates and Chiropractic care, she began
transforming her body. She then joined a Pilates class
taught by Lisa, and was immediately addicted. Her love of
machine Pilates soon followed, as well as certification in
mat and machine Pilates. Gina is a Pilates Mat Instructor
certified by Quantum Fitness. She has received her Level I
reformer certification from Powerhouse Pilates and is
continuing her studies with the Wunda Chair and the
Cadillac. Gina is also certified by Yogafit. |

“I enjoy helping people heal
and transform their bodies through Pilates and Yoga. My
teaching specialty is primarily Pilates. The accomplishment
for which I am most proud is working with each individual’s
needs and bringing them to that moment of “ah-ha” in
Pilates, either by their understanding the exercises and how
the correct position feels in their own body, or by bringing
them to an exercise place that does not put them in a
painful position for those recovering from injury. In my off
time, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling,
hiking, biking, and cooking. I am from Sequim, a very small
town in Washington State. I am a chocolatier. I have a
husband, a daughter, and a cat. I have 4 sisters.” |
