Private, Rehab-Informed Pilates for Anyone Ready to Feel at Home in Their Body

Your body is talking to you.

✦ WHO IS THIS FOR

You don't have to be fit to start, young,

or know anything about Pilates.

You just have to be ready to feel better.

Misty works with clients in Grass Valley who are done pushing through and ready to actually listen to what their body needs. Whether you’re recovering from injury, navigating the changes that come with your 40s and 50s, or just craving movement that feels good instead of punishing, this is where you land.

Every session is tailored to you, your body, your history, and your pace.

What Makes This Different

A Rehab-Informed Approach

This isn’t a group class where you follow along and hope for the best. Misty brings a rehab-informed approach to every session, looking at how your whole body moves, not just the muscles you’re trying to strengthen.

She’ll notice the things you’ve learned to work around: the hip that’s been compensating, the shoulder that’s been bracing, the breath you’ve been holding for longer than you realize. She’ll help you unwind them one session at a time, so that movement starts to feel like something your body actually wants instead of something you push yourself to do.

✦ ABOUT MISTY

I’ve been in a body my whole life, really in it, dancing, moving, teaching, feeling what it means to be fully alive in physical form. For a long time I thought everyone felt that way, and they don’t, which is why I do this work.

I founded Bria Pilates in Downtown Seattle, an award-winning center integrating Pilates, Physical Therapy, and Organic Spa, and directed it for over 12 years. I created a 500-hour Pilates Teacher Certification Program, was named Seattle’s Best Pilates Instructor by Seattle Metropolitan Magazine, and Seattle’s Best Massage Therapist by Allure Magazine. I’m a Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner, Certified Herbalist, and Professional Ayurvedic Chef with over 25 years in the healing arts.

✦ Holistic Healing Beyond Movement

Ayurvedic Coaching, Available Online Worldwide

For some people, Pilates is just the beginning. Once you start listening to your body through movement, you often find there’s more it’s been trying to tell you: about your energy, your rhythms, your seasons, about why certain times of year feel like flowing and others feel like pushing through mud, and about what your body actually needs to restore itself, not just manage symptoms.

This is where Ayurveda comes in. Ayurvedic coaching with Misty goes deeper than any protocol or plan. It’s a framework for understanding your own body at the root level, why you’re wired the way you are, what depletes you and what restores you, and how to build a life that actually works with your nature instead of against it.
