Summer worked in a corporate environment for 22 years and found Pilates as a way to balance the physical debilitation of a “desk” job. She has been an enthusiastic Pilates client since 2006. Summer originally trained as a classical Ballerina and danced professionally. She has taught dance at Sinclair College  and worked with various youth and geriatric groups in the Dayton area. As a result of dancing for over 45 years, and learning the Stott Pilates format of exercise, Summer has a deep understanding of body awareness. This awareness mixed with the proper forms of Pilates movements enables Summer to maximize the exercises to an individual’s specific needs. “Teaching others, and observing a person’s progression, has always been an intrinsic driver for me”. Summer is Stott trained in both Essential and Intermediate Pilates.

Summer is married, has two sons and grandchildren that she loves to entertain. She attended  Wright State University and earned a Bachelors degree in Marketing. Other interests include gardening, hiking the National Parks, spiritual studies, travel abroad and is currently a beekeeper.
