We’re a small team with big ideas and a passion for doing things well.
Laura
Laura’s journey began in her early 20s with a transformative hot yoga class that ignited her passion for this magical practice. As a dedicated practitioner turned certified instructor, yoga and personal development became the cornerstones of Laura’s life.
However, injuries led her to discover the wonders of Pilates, which provided the physical rehab her body craved. Laura firmly believes that yoga rehabilitates the mind, while Pilates rehabilitates the body—movement is truly the best medicine.
Despite her progress in mindful movement, Laura realized that true healing required more than just physical practices. Faced with past traumas and severe burnout, she sought out the guidance of therapy and discovered the transformative power of Human Design. This unique system helped her navigate her struggles, embracing her authenticity, and understanding the importance of alignment in all aspects of life.
She is certified in Yoga, Pilates, personal training, corporate fitness and nutrition, and Thai Bodywork.
When she’s at Pilates Native, Laura offers Pilates and Thai Yoga (also called Thai Massage and Thai Vedic Assisted Yoga). She is passionate about injury recovery as well as the advanced Pilates work.
Allison
Like many of us, Allison’s Pilates journey started with a desire to deal with her back pain. An avid outdoors woman, Allison found that her back pain interfered with camping, hiking, cross country skiing and her desire to PR on several of her lifts. After working with Rubecca and learning all kinds of Pilates tricks, she realized that Pilates gave her a movement practice that required a quiet control, rather than a big powerful oomph. Wanting to go deeper into this new sensation and explore more, she joined Pilates Native/Pilates Plus for instructor training and is now one of the team!
She brings an infectious enthusiasm and a genuine warmth and care for her clients. You can rest assured that if Allison doesn’t know an answer, she will start looking for one! She is passionate about Pilates as a way to keep her moving in all the ways she loves.
Roscoe
Rubecca’s BFF + Pilates Native Chief of Morale
Originally from South Texas, Roscoe found himself at an animal shelter in San Benito. From San Benito, he was shipped to Austin before making his way to the Foothills Animal Shelter in Golden, CO.
Like all good dogs, Roscoe immediately wooed the one family member who was NOT on board with getting a dog. We weren’t the only family interested in this sweet boy, so we placed our names on the waitlist with a $20 deposit and headed home to wait.
The kiddo spent the next 24 hours “manifesting” Roscoe and telling the universe we were the perfect family for him.
Luckily, the universe agreed and at 3pm the next day, we got a call that we were next in line for Roscoe and could pick him up asap. Roscoe came home with us that day and has been a favorite family member ever since. To quote my kiddo, he’s the smartest, sweetest dog in the whole world!
Along with extended naps inside of my pollinator garden where he squashes all of the plants, he loves long runs, hikes and any adventures with his humans.
