After discovering Brittany had a chronic back condition she quickly became engulfed in the Fletcher work, she then knew pilates was the only answer. The work gave her a deeper understanding of the human body and she progressed further she noticed her back pain disappeared. This work saved her life.

Brittany has always had a passion for movement, the human body, and helping others; after having such a life changing experience with this work it has inspired her to help others in the way that this work helped her. Fletcher Pilates® evolves directly from the original method taught to Ron Fletcher by Joe and Clara Pilates. Combining the principles and precision techniques of classic Pilates with his extensive modern dance background, Ron Fletcher developed an organic, flowing and artful series of movements - deeply engaging the body, mind and breath - that are as challenging to perform as they are satisfying to master. Brittany is so grateful to have Ron's blessing to teach this work and pass on his gift...
