Originally from California, Deseree’s passion for movement began at a young age through competitive studio dance and continued into high school as a competitive Pom dancer. She then pursued her Bachelor’s Degree in Dance, where she competed collegiately and performed at UDA Nationals in Florida. During college, Pilates and anatomy-based movement training became a required part of her education, ultimately igniting her passion for Pilates and functional movement.

After college, Deseree professionally danced for the NBA’s Los Angeles Laker Girls while also coaching a high school dance team in Lakewood, California. Under her leadership, the team earned 1st place titles all four years she coached. She later relocated to Georgia, where she taught dancers ranging from Pre-K through high school while also professionally cheering for the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders.

Today, Deseree resides in Minnesota with her two daughters, Eleanora and Charlotte, combining her lifelong background in dance, movement, and teaching into her Pilates instruction. She is deeply passionate about helping clients build strength, confidence, balance, and longevity through movement. While she believes Pilates is an incredible tool for dancers, she also firmly believes it benefits every BODY seeking a healthier, stronger, and more sustainable lifestyle.
