Pilates has quickly become a passion of Allisha after discovering the transformative power it has on both the mind and body. Her journey with Pilates began with a few mat classes at her local gym, but it was not until she tried the reformer at Dima-lates that she truly understood the potential of this practice. As a nurse dedicated to helping others achieve better health and well-being, she saw Pilates as a valuable tool to complement traditional medical care. Under the guidance of Dima, she dug deeper into Pilates and soon found herself pursuing  STOTT PILATES®  certification and achieved her full certification. The opportunity to share the benefits of Pilates with others is a dream come true. She is eager to continue learning and growing on this journey, and is excited to help others discover the physical and mental benefits that Pilates has to offer. Through teaching Pilates, she hope to empower individuals to take control of their health and wellness, and to experience the joy and fulfillment that comes with a strong, balanced body.
