Deandra has been teaching Pilates and GYROTONIC® for over 15 years, having completed her Pilates training with Marie Jose Bloom and GYROTONIC ® training with Lisa Marie Goodwin. She was initially drawn to Pilates and GYROTONIC® as a dancer seeking supplemental conditioning but a desire to teach grew out of her love for these progressive forms of exercise, both of which resemble dance in their fluid and expansive movement. Her attention to proper bio-mechanics as well as her multi-discipline background make her a unique teacher in her field. Sessions with Deandra focus on increasing structural alignment and muscular balance through workouts tailored to individual needs. She is also a Certified Massage Therapist, a Marriage and Family Therapist, and yoga practitioner who believes in a holistic approach to wellness.
