Parker is a Boone native and mom of two wild boys. She discovered Pilates in college as a tool to cope with chronic back pain and began teaching in 2013. She has experience working with joint replacements, spinal fusions, osteoporosis, scoliosis, neurological disorders, diastasis recti, pelvic organ prolapse, and more. She loves helping people regain confidence in their movement, reconnect with their body after injury, and get back to doing what they love.
