Hey, I’m Allison
I use body neutral cues and will never mention an idealized body type. I believe you know your body best and my goal is to give you the tools to recognize that. My approach helps you hold get stronger and develop body awareness by inviting you to notice. You have complete autonomy over how you move and how you practice an exercise, all while being guided with feedback. If something isn’t doesn’t feel good, then you don’t have to do it and we will find an alternative. It’s as simple as that.
Live your life and move from a place of self-trust. I teach to get you there.
I'm the owner and lead Instructor behind Serō. To keep it short— I’m an avid learner who’s spent significant time beyond my initial 500 hour Pilates teacher training to stay up to date on current research and exercise theories.
I teach from a perspective of exploring Pilates with an understanding that our bodies are neither good nor bad, they just are.
I strive to make Pilates for everybody without just paying lip service to diversity. I don't always get it right and I am always educating myself and learning.
There's no room for hate, racism, homophobia, or misogyny at Serō or in my teaching. Love is love and LGBTQIA+ people have every right to safely be themselves. I use your pronouns. I believe women's rights are human rights.
