Hi there!  My name is Jessica Hanika, after a car accident two decades ago, followed by the stress of a corporate desk job, I had to face some tough decisions about my body and the shape I was in. After many years I found myself stuck in the physical therapy pain cycle.  My strength, flexibility deteriorated and I felt stuck on how do I fix it.

I was in and out of physical therapy and in the corner was a reformer not being used. I was facing a shoulder surgery and the pain was constant my shoulders were rounded, my neck chronically hurt, my lower back was in constant pain. I was stuck. 

With some determination,  I decided to purchase a reformer for the house. I hired a wonderful instructor to come to my home during the pandemic shut down and she worked with me twice a week. I couldn't  plank,  do a sit up or a bridge. And every week she would push me to grow and do more.

I was able to rebuild my body from the ground up and my experience gives me a solid understanding of where people are at in their moment. 

I loved Pilates so much that I started taking instructor training for myself so that I could be better aware of my body and I also had a mission. I want to help people.

I love to give back and share how life changing and life giving this form of exercise truly is. 

I created a private Bridge Studio to help my clients build strength, without an audience, while eliminating the pain cycle and keeping the price as close to a co-pay as possible. It is apart of my mission to help keep private lessions affordable. My logged hours are 4000+ sessions. 

My passion and aptitude to help others continuously motivate me to think outside of the box and customize each workout to meet each client's individualized needs.  My knowledge expands to all ages, shapes, sizes and abilities. Pilates is for everyone and everyone can transform and move forward with Pilates. It truly is THAT amazing!
