Paula started taking ballet at 2 years old and continued dance classes in tap, jazz, lyrical and pointe until the age of 18, participating in her studio’s performance class as well as school dance teams. She moved to Macon in 2001 to attend Mercer University School of Engineering. When her son was born in 2006, she became a stay at home mom. A few years later, after her daughter was born in 2009, Paula found herself longing to reconnect with her dance background and found Cor Pilates. She noticed the way Pilates changed her body and made her feel better. It even improved the symptoms of her lymphedema and her auto-immune condition - POTS. After 3 years of practicing, Paula took the opportunity to become a certified instructor. She has been teaching Pilates since 2016 and always looks forward to sharing the many benefits of Pilates with others while continuing to learn and grow in her personal practice and as a teacher.
