Rick is originally from San Diego, CA. He has Bachelors from University of California, Irvine and Masters from UCLA and the University of Chicago. He was a high school and adult school teacher for many years in the US and South America.
A few years ago by chance he truly fell in love with Pilates trying it out for the first time. It really helped him manage a challenging health issue both mentally and physically. He is a believer of the genius behind the power of the classical method to rehabilitate whether it be low back, knee, osteoporosis, etc. So when he decided it was time for a career change he enrolled in the rigorous 600hr classical comprehensive training at Power Pilates in NYC and Boston. He worked under Master Trainer & Committee Chair Cheryl Turnquist.
He loves the fact that classical pilates can be taught to anyone no matter their age, gender or background. It truly amazes him when he is able to see a 90yr grandfather and a 20yr ballet dancer both practicing these timeless exercises and seeing equally transformative results. This is why he is so excited to be a Pilates teacher for many years to come!
