Christina is a great Pilates instructor. She used her strong anatomy and kinesiology skills, plus spot on intuition, to figure out what was going on in my body, where I lacked strength, and which exercises were best for me at the time. After just the first session, I was standing taller and walking with confidence and strength.

She is also a warm and kind hearted individual. Highly recommended!

For 10 years Christina has patiently taught me to how to engage my core and stop recruiting muscles that would eventually cause dysfunction as I age. Her ability to combine Pilates with her knowledge of Yoga and the Pelvic Floor has changed my posture. Christina has an incredible eye to see where restrictions cause lack of movement and pain as well as the knowledge to assist in resolving them. Since sheltering-in her on line classes have been been the perfect solution to staying in the exercise loop. They are well organized with comprehensive levels for difficulty and adaptations for physical challenges. Christina is a petite woman but a powerhouse of a Pilates instructor.

When I finally connected with Christina I regretted not coming to see her sooner. I had been experiencing chronic back pain since my teens. Like many I was more athletic in high school and College but I had never realized the importance of engaging my core. Within a very short time working with Christina my back pain was gone. A lifetime of incorrect posture doesn’t resolve overnight but with weekly & bi weekly sessions with Christina I was strong, engaged, free from pain and living a more active lifestyle. I was able to complete two triathlons. My biggest surprise was relief from a chronic shoulder pain I had experienced for over 20 years. I had seen doctors, had a reduction surgery, massages, acupuncture, cupping you name it. I just learned to live with the pain. Christina picked up on my body mechanics. I hadn’t even mentioned my shoulder. Straight away she helped me to correctly recruit more from my back and not just my trapezius. Have you ever lived with a chronic pain that you have completely given up any hope of resolving? Changing daily habits of how you walk, sit or carry things... it is possible to recover and regain strength and mobility in the skilled hands of Christina.

I have had some challenges with pain free mobility and I wanted to strengthen my body again, build bone and reduce my body pain. By working with Christina in her virtual pilates classes, I have achieved all of those goals. I am stronger, flexible and have much less pain. Christina's expertise in palates and her ability to customize positions and props for my unique needs is a perfect combination and I now make her classes a priority in my life.

Working out at Core Pilates has been a lifesaver. Christina is not only a disciple of the Pilates method, but also an expert in body mechanics.
She is able to explain and implement body mechanics to help you move more appropriately and safely. Her focus is on overall body movement but she is well equipped to work on specific area, like lower back, neck, pelvis, etc. I have benefited significantly from her professionally and personally. She is a delightful, very positive person.

Hands down Core Energy Pilates is the best! I've been with Christina for almost 10 years because she is knowlegeable, attentive, and results oriented. I cannot imagine where my injury would have taken my body without the Pilates practice that she taught me and I've been able to incorporate into my daily life.

Five-year client. Love the personalized approach that provides a great workout that's also safe for aging bodies. Love being strong! I recommend CORE Energy for all ages. I wish I started at CORE Energy 10 or 20 years ago when I was younger, but it's never too late to start a safe strength building and balance program. Thank you Christina! You make Sacramento healthy.

Christina is such a skilled instructor. She explains really well & observes you for any needed position change. I started going to her for chronic back pain a few years ago. That dramatically improved. Since then she has worked around a knee surgery and now a shoulder problem. She is very aware of what exercises could exacerbate rather than improve on the problem. I highly recommend her!
