Before attending her first Pilates mat class in 2000, Allison was a Registered Landscape Architect and then a stay-at-home mom with her two boys. Discovering Pilates completely changed the direction of her life, however, and thus she became a dedicated student of the Pilates Method. After teaching mat classes for over three years, she began her Peak Pilates Certification training and completed the Comprehensive Program in June 2006. She is now in her third year as the owner of Corvallis Pilates, a full-service classical studio and Peak Pilates training host-site. Always expanding and deepening, Allison continually explores the power of the body/mind/spirit connection through movement, incorporating the organizing and unifying principles of Pilates as a transformational tool for recreating all aspects of self from the inside out.
