About

Hi, I’m Jade—movement has been part of my story for as long as I can remember. I grew up as a gymnast, competing through Level 9 and later performing acro and tumbling in college at Arizona Christian. After sports, I was searching for something new, something that blended strength with intention, and that’s when I discovered Pilates. It quickly became more than just exercise—it became a way to reconnect with myself.

I trained under Ulyssa Preciado of Uli’s Gold Pilates and became certified in Mat and Reformer Pilates through Pilates Instructor Academy. Since May 2024, I’ve been teaching with the intention of making Pilates both grounding and fun: a practice that’s challenging, relaxing, and always filled with detail and purpose.

Outside of teaching, I’ve always been drawn to creativity—whether that’s developing recipes as a barista (especially matcha!), planning unique events, or running small businesses in jewelry, candles, and photography. With Popular Loner, I bring all of those passions together, creating experiences that go beyond just a class.

Most of all, I love supporting people. Whether it’s your very first class or you’ve been moving for years, I strive to meet you where you are and guide you toward strength, calm, and connection.
