Audrey acquired a fundamental understanding of the integrative roles of fitness and nutrition in healing and optimizing healthy bodies through classical dance training and performance.

Her study of Pilates imparted an appreciation for the intrinsic rewards of helping others learn how to achieve their goals for fitness, nutrition, and vibrant health.
