Hi! I’m Conni.

I’m so happy you are here.

Unlock your health potential with expert health and fitness coaching.

Find your way back to you.

I’ve spent my life finding joy, cultivating wellness, and connecting with others through Pilates, yoga and walking. In my health coaching practice, I support others in their journey to what I consider a good life. I believe that mind-body connection is key to living a healthy, balanced life. My goal is to help people change habits for health in joyful and sustainable ways.

I personally know the effort it takes to balance the demands of life (work, parenting, health, community, etc.). Through my health coaching, I seek to help others find balance and shift their mindset from willpower to well-being.

With more than 40 years in the industry, I love helping people live good lives through physical wellness and mindfulness. I’ve led fitness programs in destinations including Jackson Hole, Rancho la Puerta in Tecate, Mexico, and the Golden Door Spa at Sea. Bend, Oregon became my home in 1997. I opened the first Pilates studio here in Bend. I’m known for my teaching in Pilates, restorative yoga, walking coach, and health coaching, and have led retreats around the world. As this article in The Guardian describes, a man who joined a walking coach found he was not just faster, but taller. And he changed his pace, posture and perspective. It’s the best exercise I’ve found for longevity and a foundation of my practices for living a good life.

If you are ready to start making changes toward a joyful lifestyle around food, movement and mindset that you can sustain, let’s connect.
