Jessica Burnie
Jessica Burnie was introduced to Pilates eight years ago while pursuing a modeling career in Toronto.
Pilates was the top recommendation for all of the models to stay long and lean for the runway.
Pilates has come a long way and is now one of the top recommendations from medical doctors, physiotherapists and chiropractors for people of all fitness levels to maintain an alligned body free of pain.
As Jessica grew her self practice, she found her body to be stronger and her mind calmer to be able to cope with the daily pressures of living life in the fast lane. Much, if not all, of this was directly due to her devotion to Pilates resulting in a physical and mental transformation. She soon ditched the high heels for Pilates mats and foam rollers to pursue what she believes is her true calling….to help others feel better.
It wasn’t long before she had found the perfect Master Trainer to begin her journey. This was no easy task!
In Jan 2004, Jessica was certified to teach The Method through the Physicalmind Institute, based in New York. Her certifications include mat, all large and small apparatus and pre/postnatal. She also has a number of certifications for Pilates and rehabilitation. She then spent the better part of the next two years studying and teaching Pilates directly under her mentor at Toronto’s certifying studio for the Physicalmind Canada. At the end of her carefully watched training she was hired by her mentor as a Principal Pilates Instructor, specializing in rehabilitation and Pilates for Injury Prevention.
Jessica went on to work with many elite athletes, people suffering from back pain of all kinds, women who were pregnant or who had just given birth, and also many children.
….and her journey doesn’t stop there…..
Jessica is currently preparing for Vancouver to complete her transmittal to become the first and only certifying studio for the Physicalmind Canada, in Nova Scotia.
The future is bright for Therapeutic Pilates.
Change is in your future!
