This website exists because movement heals, and I believe we can all use support in our unique journeys. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t pursuing movement. I started ballet when I was 3, and I did competitive gymnastics until age 10, before seriously pursing ballet. Pilates entered my life in high school—just me in my living room trying out pilates-esque Kathy Smith DVDs. In college I got a more formal introduction to pilates when I was dealing with a bulging disc in my back. My back got better, and I danced better than I ever had. I was hooked. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5de451809f40c13aa6a09682/1615948879390-HWHV0JBUM01DA6PA0N25/_MG_0429.jpg Bio - Life gave me an unexpected chance to get certified when, in 2017, I found myself pulled out of my professional dance career because of a foot injury. I poured myself into this world of mindful movement and got certified in both pilates and GYROTONIC® within a year. Now, four years later, I’ve shared the joy of movement with people of all ages and experiences. I’ve seen the power of these modalities help people improve posture, relieve pain, bring balanced strength, and open up hearts. I’ve rejoiced with clients when they tell me they walked by a store window and noticed their posture was straight; I’ve clapped enthusiastically over zoom when a client has found ease in a teaser; I’ve sat and breathed deeply with a client as they’ve discovered sometimes gentle movement can be the most powerful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5de451809f40c13aa6a09682/1615944875766-GJ2QG3WRTMYOTK9JHR3R/Alayna.Brenchley.2014-4444-Edit.jpg Bio - My dance career ending was what drew me into teaching. Covid-19 is what showed me the fun and effectiveness of online teaching. I started 2021 with an intention to expand and explore. I’m letting myself dream again. I’m discovering how the unexpected twists and turns in life can unfold into something beautiful that fuels me and those I interact with. I want to work with you because I want YOU to know what it’s like for your spine to feel more mobile and your core to support you. I have 20 years of diverse movement experience, and I want to share it so we can all find more joy, freedom, and peace on our journeys.

You’ll find yourself less injury prone and with more strength and control in the sports you play, the other fitness methods you enjoy, and the everyday activities such as gardening, sitting on the floor, and carrying groceries.
