Laura is the mentor every Pilates trainee wishes they had. A professional dancer, certified Pilates educator, and movement specialist based in La Jolla, she brings a powerful mix of artistry, anatomy, and real-world teaching insight.

Drawing from Pilates, yoga, dance, and Ideokinesis (studied under André Bernard at NYU), Laura blends technical expertise with emotional support—because getting through teacher training takes more than memorization.

With a degree in Dance Therapy and experience teaching expressive movement at the Coronado School of the Arts, she guides students with clarity, compassion, and a deep focus on alignment, functional strength, and finding your voice.

Whether you're stuck on cueing, unsure of your progress, or simply craving more guidance—Laura's mentorship helps you move with confidence and teach with purpose.

Laura’s workshops are located at Gotham Pilates 7760 Fay Ave, Suite J, La Jolla, CA.
