Aleesa

Pilates Teacher

Aleesa received her Pilates training in 2018 from the Pilates Sports Center. She excels in working with a wide range of fitness levels and abilities, and enjoys working with individuals with varied interests – men and women looking to improve their flexibility, regain coordination, and increase core strength.

Aleesa has an extensive background in understanding physical limitations and how important movement and an empathic approach are to regaining confidence with respect to healthy movement.

Having served as a caregiver to her sister (who suffered a spinal cord injury), she has harnessed the power of positivity and become adept at working with individuals recovering from injuries, looking to regain lost mobility, and wanting to learn the importance of injury prevention.

Her experience with her sister led Aleesa to seek ways to better understand the spine and how the core is vital to spine health. She looked into the healing powers of Pilates and fell in love with the method. After 10 years of personal practice, she found her calling and became a certified Pilates professional.

Aleesa is from the South Bay area of Los Angeles. After living in L.A. for many years, she and her husband relocated to Palm Springs. Today, she finds time to enjoy the quality of life the desert offers, getting outdoors and spending time with her beloved toy poodle.
