Hi, My name is Jennie and I am a mother of three children who feed into my love of coffee. I enjoy walking, biking, hockey, popcorn with peanut M and Ms, watching Netflix, practicing Yoga and Pilates and learning all I can about movement, the human body and our amazing brains. I am also a lover of gluten free baked goods, music and SLEEP!
Professionally, I am the creator of the Neuroscience Pi
lates System, which combines Pilates and functional neurology to improve movement and minimize pain. I have completed training and certifications in: Pilates, Yoga, Pre/Postnatal Fitness, Core and Pelvic Health, Functional Neurology, Pain Modulation and Foot Health. I am also a Level 2 Reiki Practitioner. I am located in Hespeler, Cambridge
I have lived a life a chronic pain and have identified with the feeling of being broken. It was the belief that I was not meant to enjoy life, that there would always be limitations out of my control that held me back from living life to the fullest and in fear of more pain. I have always been intrigued by the human body and all the amazingness we truly are. It was this interest that led me to start studying anatomy, biomechanics and most recently functional neurology and pain science. I studied these areas completely out of interest and a desire to create a movement practice where I could help others, not realizing how much the education would be helpful for me. I have learned we do not have to live in pain, and many of the limitations we believe we have, are false limitations we have created due to everything we have experienced. Non of us are broken and we are all capable of growth and change. We are all so much stronger, capable and resilient than we often recognize. We are not static and by using the power of neuroplasticity (the ability of the brain to change) and the absolute strength of our bodies, we can minimize pain and optimize our daily or athletic performance. I absolutely love what I do and although I love every aspect of my job, my favourite part is seeing the "aha" moments when clients really start to see change and recognize their movement potential, allowing them a sense of freedom to live the life they want. My practice is inspired by the following quote:
"There is more to us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for anything less". Kurt Hahn.
Move Better, Feel Better, Live Better!
