​
Our mind and body are intricately linked. If we look from a neurological perspective, each movement we do with our bodies sends signals from muscles to the brain and vice versa. By being active, the neurological connection becomes more vital, reawakening thousands of dormant muscle cells.
​
Elevate Wellness focuses on developing a unique repertoire that allows clients to awaken their body and mind through yoga poses and pilates exercises. Combining these movements, arousing those dormant cells, and enhancing the mind's function, we produce a dopamine hit that motivates us to move our bodies,
Body +mind+movement=happiness and longevity

Your Instructor Sharon
Yoga has been a part of my life for 15 years. Yoga inspires me to live each moment more mindfully and authentically. Pilates has taken me on a journey of appreciation of how resilient the body can be with consistent flexion, extension, rotation and flow.
As a yoga therapist and clinical pilates instructor, I feel empowered to motivate others to be their personal best, both physically and psychologically. I am inspired to be my client's cheerleader, working alongside them and supporting them in reaching their goals.
With my clients, I love to create an atmosphere of spiritual playfulness with a dose of curiosity. My vision is to empower all my clients to live their best authentic life through movement and mindfulness.
