Hi, I’m Christy — the creator of the Core Alchemy Method. I know firsthand how hard it can be to stay connected to your body when you’re dealing with pain, fatigue, or the fear of injury. Living with rheumatoid arthritis has taught me that movement doesn’t have to be punishing to be powerful — it can be healing, supportive, and deeply grounding.

Over the past 25 years, I’ve guided students of all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to those rebuilding strength after illness or injury. My teaching combines clear biomechanics with a gentle, intuitive approach that helps people reconnect with their bodies in a safe and empowering way.

I’m a Level 2 certified Pilates instructor, trained through STOTT and PMI. Through the Core Alchemy Method, I weave together Pilates, wellness coaching, and mindful movement to help you build strength, restore confidence, and find ease in everyday life.
