Debora Goveia

Pilates Instructor

Debora came to Pilates via the dance world. Trained in classical ballet from an early age, she's also a master-level Reiki practitioner. To her, Pilates, Reiki and ballet share a common source in the energy that radiates from the center of our being. It's our job as students to learn to control and direct that energy with intention using form, alignment, and self-awareness. 

Debora's Pilates training includes both Balanced Body and extensive personal practice with Pike & Plank. She enjoys bringing dance-related repertoire to the Pilates reformer and is our resident Gentle class instructor. Her classes are fun, precise and accessible to all abilities. Seeking a wider healing context for her teaching, Debora's motto, coined by writer, Alan Dean Foster, is, "Today's magic is tomorrow's science."
