Malissa is a Certified Stott Pilates Instructor, Rugby Athlete and Former Collegiate Competitive Skier.

My name is Malissa & I am a Certified Stott Pilates Instructor, Semi-Professional Rugby Athlete, former college athlete, and I believe in giving back to my body in a way it understands.

It’s so lovely to meet you and I am so glad you are taking the chance to explore BODEE Performance Pilates, something I have invested endless hours, sweat, and tears into bringing to life.

I have been playing sports at a high level since I could walk and as the years came and went, so did the luxuries of an injury-free life. I realized that I needed to do something sustainable that benefitted my body in addition to all the strength, speed, power, and performance training I was used to. I needed to do something that brought my body balance and showed it true care that would last me throughout the rest of my life.

I fell in love with Pilates through my personal experience of rehabbing and preventing injuries. My physical therapists always recommended it, and once I tried it, I never looked back. Finding an instructor who understood my physical ailments and hip dysplasia along with my athletic goals felt difficult, so over the years I invested in training with STOTT Pilates, worked with some amazing athletic trainers and PTs, and have continuously educated myself to become the instructor I always needed.

I have invested so much into my Pilates journey over the last decade and the ability to help people and bring them healthy movement and balance brings me the utmost joy.
