Maura fell in love with Pilates while healing multiple injuries at the beginning of her professional dance career. Initially and still quite drawn to the intentionality of the practice and accessibility of the exercises through modifications/variations, she is grateful to a consistent practice which has given her increased stability and organization (posture) living in a hypermobile body, strength and ease beyond any other form of training. Movement is a transformational agent in her life and she believes in the psychosomatic benefits of daily movement. It is an honor to work with clients through Pilates.

Maura is a lifelong dancer and dance instructor teaching pre-professional dancers in the Chicagoland area. Maura has 2 cats who are constantly inspiring her with their embodiment, curiosities, ease and heartfelt communication.
