She graduated from SDSU with her BS in Kinesiology in 2003, and minored in Dance and performing w/ the SDSU dance team for over 2 years.  She has been teaching dance competitively at Studio West for over 5 years and is now taking time off that to get her Masters in Exercise and Science with a focus of Corrective Exercise and Rehabilitation.  Vanessa’s dance background and lower back injury in high school led her to the world of Pilates and has worked at FQ10 since 2002.  She has found a true passion in helping people get out of pain, improve their posture, work on their flexibility and most of all strengthen that core!  She has worked with professional athletes, dancers, ice skaters and loves working with all ages. 

In her spare time, Vanessa loves to dance, continue her education, travel and catch up with friends!
