Full body Mat Pilates

Hi my name is Savannah Holmes and I am a Pilates instructor at Atomic Pilates & Chiropracitc!!

My story:I originally got into pilates after having back and brain surgery in 2015. I discovered I had scoliosis in 2012 when I was 12 years old. I ended up having to wear a back brace for 3 years. Long story short... my back had gotten worse as I grew and I needed surgery to fix everything. But luckily we had an MRI show spinal fluid was collecting in the back of my skull so they rushed me to brain surgery. I then had my spinal fusion a few months later.

After spinal surgery, I wasn’t allowed to exercise or do any form of high intensity training for a full year in insure my back was fully fused. I was very weak and needed to rebuild my strength. I was frustrated at times because every source of exercise I tried hurt me.  That’s when I found pilates.

A family friend introduced me to the reformer and I instantly fell in love. I was so excited to finally find an exercise program that didn’t hurt my back and could build my muscles without pain!! I am forever grateful for my family friend who introduced me to pilates and eventually pushed me to be an instructor!!

I've been teaching for 4 years now and have absolutely LOVED helping others reach their exercise goals!! I'm feel like such a proud soccer mom when clients tell me they've seen themselves move and feel better:)) I'll be your biggest cheerleader, so come see me in class!!

Some fun facts:I love snowboarding, wake surfing, weight lifting, and absolutely LOVE big dogs!! I have a St. Bernard named Mocha and I adore her!!
