Fulfilling a Passion and Reaching Goals!
The
second part of her journey began when she was introduced to Pilates in 2006.
Shelley found that Pilates helped her achieve greater body awareness and core
strength. She knew this was something she wanted to share with others, so she
trained and certified in STOTT PILATES® Mat and Reformer in 2007. She continued
her education and achieved full certification on all Pilates’ equipment in
2014 and at that time was able to fulfill her dream of owning a Pilates studio which had great success from 2014-2019.
Early Career
The first part of her journey began after an injury in 1986, she received physical therapy support and it was that experience that piqued her interest to become a Physical Therapist. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Therapy from the University of Utah in 1996 and began her career as a physical therapist.
Her entrepreneurial spirit called her to open her own Physical Therapy company called Sage Physical Therapy in 2006. She operated this company offering home health services and managing Physical Therapist Assistants to provide support to individuals needing rehabilitation after an injury or illness.
