Courtney’s connection to movement started early. Growing up with a mother who has spent more than 40 years in the group fitness industry, staying active was simply part of everyday life. From playing sports to joining her mother’s classes, she developed an appreciation for movement and the way it can make you feel, both physically and mentally.

In 2014, shortly after moving to Miami from Orlando, Courtney traveled to Lima, Peru, her father’s hometown, to complete a month-long, 200-hour yoga teacher training. There, she studied a range of practices including vinyasa, power, restorative, and prenatal yoga. Over the years, her love of movement continued to evolve and eventually led her to pilates. Drawn to its precision, strength, and challenge, she became certified in reformer pilates in 2023, followed by classical mat pilates in 2024.

Today, Courtney teaches yoga and pilates full time while creating and hosting retreats around the world, bringing together her love of movement, travel, and connection.
