Specialty Workshops
Bring new ideas and specialized movement training to your community.
I partner with boutique studios and organizations worldwide to host practical, hands-on workshops. Each workshop combines the science of movement with nervous system care, and injury recovery leaving your staff inspired, your clients well-connected, and your studio running strong.
Find Your Balance: Pilates for Hypermobility and Hypomobility
Navigating the extremes of tissue laxity or deep structural rigidity requires specialized, highly precise movement strategies. In this comprehensive workshop, participants learn how to safely stabilize and mobilize their unique skeletal frames without risking injury.
Assess & Identify: Learn how to analyze individual structural mobility needs and recognize the subtle differences between hypermobile and hypomobile joint patterns.
Build Core Stability: Discover how to build true joint integrity, protect vulnerable connective tissues, and safely expand restricted ranges of motion.
Practical Application: Experience a guided mat Pilates masterclass tailored to balance mobility with stability, incorporating targeted prop work (resistance bands and foam rollers).
Ideal for: Studio clients looking to move safely, and instructors seeking advanced modifications for hypermobile populations.
Healing Through Movement Series: A Mind-Body Approach to Injuries
True physical rehabilitation cannot happen in a state of survival mode. This signature series addresses both the emotional trauma of chronic pain and the physical mechanics of injury recovery, bridging the gap between clinical physical therapy and long-term functional movement.
Nervous System First: Learn to release the physical and mental bracing patterns that lock trauma and chronic pain into the musculoskeletal system.
Anatomical Mapping: Dive deep into functional anatomy and proactive biomechanics to restore fluid mobility and prevent recurring injuries.
Focuses
*Diagnosed with scoliosis at age 11, I understand firsthand the emotional vulnerability and physical discomfort that accompanies a changing spine. This specialized workshop is intentionally built to serve two vital audiences: adolescents navigating a scoliosis diagnosis and movement professionals dedicated to expanding their clinical skill set.
For Movement Professionals: Learn to deepen your understanding of structural asymmetries and the unique emotional impact of spinal conditions. Acquire the exact tools needed to program with confidence, safety, and compassion.
Lived and Clinical Expertise: This curriculum draws from my personal recovery journey as well as a intensive, year-long rehabilitation case study with a 17-year-old client following Vertebral Body Tethering (VBT) surgery.
Restore & Revive: A Yin & Fascia Release Workshop
This restorative workshop seamlessly pairs targeted myofascial release techniques with deep Yin yoga to decompress the body, unbind restricted tissues, and calm the mind.
30 Minutes of Myofascial Release: Utilize specialized therapy balls and props to release dense trigger points, improve tissue hydration, and melt superficial tension.
60 Minutes of Yin Yoga: Sink into long-held, passive postures targeting deep connective tissues, fascia planes, and joint mobility.
Daily Integration: Walk away feeling physically longer, systematically grounded, and equipped with self-care techniques to practice at home or during travel.
I absolutely loved the Restore & Revive workshop! We started off with the fascia release all over the body and ended with a yin yoga practice. Erica was wonderful and thorough in teaching us how to properly use the props we were working with, along with giving variations for each move we worked through. She taught us great and practical techniques that can be added to our everyday practice. I highly recommend her & cannot wait for the next one!

Align Your Body’s Natural Clock: Circadian Rhythm Workshop
True wellness extends far beyond the studio mat. This lifestyle intensive workshop helps participants decipher their unique energetic cycles to optimize sleep quality, metabolic health, recovery, and daily cognitive focus.
- The Ayurvedic Blueprint: Understand your baseline constitution (doshas) and learn time-tested methods to structure your daily routines.
- Balancing Qi: Explore how intentional breathwork and strategic movement sequences regulate nervous system health and align internal biological clocks.
- Jet Lag Prevention: Acquire immediate, actionable protocols to shift your circadian rhythm, protect your immunity, and maintain your vitality while traveling across time zones.
Of all the Pilates instructors, yoga teachers, and physical therapists I have worked with, I can honestly say that Erica is hands down the best. Since coming to her two years ago with a knee injury and the body ailments of a new(ish) mother of two, I am stronger, more flexible, and possess much greater postural awareness. Erica has an amazing breadth of knowledge when it comes to the human body and it’s inner workings – she can tell as soon as I walk into the studio which muscles need to be engaged or released just by looking at me. Her eye for proper body alignment is unparalleled, and she is very body-positive and truly focused on the health of your body. Sessions with Erica are fun yet challenging, and she never takes herself too seriously. She offers the perfect balance of chatting and exercising, without wasting the entire session talking instead of working out. Even if I’m feeling under the weather I make a commitment to be at our session because I know that both my body and my mind will feel better when I leave. Between her dedication to her clients and her depth of knowledge, Erica is the real deal.
