Emelia is a classically trained Instructor. She has always had a passion for fitness, adventure, and cooking. Her love for cooking and travel enabled her to move from her home state of North Carolina to Hawai'i, where a friend introduced her to Pilates. Practicing classical pilates empowered Emelia; she began to see herself in a different light- walking taller with more confidence, increased body awareness, and an overall feeling of lightness. After relocating back to North Carolina, she felt it was her calling to become certified to teach.She completed her education through Romana's Pilates International. Emelia is dedicated to sharing her passion with others so they can experience the same self-empowerment Pilates brought her.
