"From the very beginning of working with the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® I have been blessed to meet and learn from so many profound and amazing individuals.  In the beginning my own mother introduced me to the work and encouraged me greatly to pursue a career teaching.  Soon after the wonderful founders of Gyrotonic Boulder (Lindsey Hanson Sturm and Diane Isreal) influenced me with their amazing sense of positivity and humility.  Following them I met Sebastian Plettenberg who would inspire me and give me the foundation of my education.  Sebastian also introduced me to Geta Constaninescu who invited me to move to Miami and carried on my development as well helped me begin teaching at Miami City Ballet and Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet.  Geta was a major influence to me as a teacher and person and introduced me to Juliu Horvath and Gina Muensterkoetter whom I have spent the majority of the recent years studying with.  There are so many other teachers and students who have had played very important roles in my life over the years, and my gratitude to all of them grows with each and every day."
