The Team
Christen Backes
Christen has always had a passion for supporting others and finding success in safe and energetic exercise. Movement has been a more recent element in her life as she grew up and struggled with unresolved pain, working out became her last priority. It was only through discovering Pilates, a safe and gentle form of movement for her body, that her practice has taken hold and brought her a sense of empowerment over her own body she never thought possible. She now uses that knowledge and empathy to support others find a safe, pain free way to exercise through Pilates.

Joe Cornelius
Joe has had a lifelong passion for movement. His practice was inspired first through sports in his youth and then as a form of recovery due to a serious head injury. With a keen understanding of anatomy, he helps you feel empowered through a sense of conscious movement.“I am multilingual when it comes to the languages of movement and the body. I believe there isn't one right answer but a combination of different practices that will contribute to the best fit for you” -Joe
