Trained in classical Pilates for four years, she went on to complete training and certification in Body, Arts, Science, International (BASI), mat in 2010; Comprehensive, apparatus in 2012. Additionally, in 2012, she completed two BASI certificate courses: Pathologies & Injuries, and, Pilates for the Mature Client. Both hips were reconstructed simultaneously in late 2013. The next year, she went on to complete certificate courses for Pilates Low Back Pain Extension/Flexion, as well as, Rotator Cuff & Shoulder Impingement, both in 2014. In 2016, she was certified as a Personal Trainer through American Sports & Fitness, and, TRX suspension training fundamentals. 2018 to present, she continues to work primarily in rehabilitation and functional movement. Christy was inspired to pursue additional certifications with the esteemed Polestar Physical Therapy Pilates Program (2018-2019) while also achieving certification in the Oov small prop apparatus, mid-2019. Pilates is her lifetime commitment with an ongoing desire to never stop learning while teaching and sharing the Art of Functional Movement.
