Having survived a mountaineering accident in 2010, it was Pilates that took her rehabilitation beyond her expectations. Upon graduation with her M.S. in Health and Exercise Science at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, she moved to Denver to further study Pilates. Bre completed her comprehensive Pilates training through Balanced Body in 2011 and has since taught Pilates at several studios in Colorado, South Dakota and now Utah. Forever a movement nerd, Bre decided to take her teaching knowledge further in 2013 and began her training in the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®. She is now a Certified Level 1 & 2 GYROTONIC® Instructor and is also trained to teach on all accessory equipment; the Archway, GYROTONER®, Jumping-Stretching Board, and Leg Extension Unit. Additionally, she is currently a GYROKINESIS® apprentice teacher. She is also back in school completing her PhD at the University of Utah in Health & Kinesiology with an emphasis on Cognitive & Motor Neuroscience. Forever grateful to those who have helped her along her teaching and healing journey, her teaching is infused with a deep sense of patience, curiosity, and joy.You can find Bre on Instagram at @movement.design.lab and online at http://movementdesignlab.com/.Support the podcast:    Visit https://links.oliviabioni.com/affiliates to take advantage of some sweet savings!Episode Music:Tracks: Tobu - Good Times, Tobu & Itro - Sunburst Tobu Official YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/tobuofficialItro Official YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/officialitroReleased by NCS https://www.youtube.com/NoCopyrightSoundsSupport the show
