Our story

Movement rooted in purpose

Sunstone Pilates offers Pilates instruction across multiple locations in SW Washington — grounded in precision, shaped by the Pacific Northwest.

Alice, founder and instructor of Sunstone Pilates

Founder & Instructor

I casually practiced Pilates for 25 years, but after spending years at a desk job and having two children, my back issues escalated, prompting me to seek a lifestyle that included healthy movement. Now, I'm fully dedicated to my passion and teach what I love.

I completed comprehensive mat and equipment teacher training through BASI, and my methodology combines precise techniques with practical, real-world movements.

My early experience in competitive gymnastics instilled in me a lasting appreciation for body awareness and athletic movement. Additionally, I hold an associate's degree in occupational therapy, which enables me to design sessions that are thoughtful, functional, and safe.

As a proud enthusiast of the Pacific Northwest, I enjoy hiking trails in the gorge, running along coastal and forest paths, and infusing that PNW energy into my studio.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced mover, I strive to create an inviting, down-to-earth environment where you will feel supported, challenged, and encouraged. Everyone is welcome to join, regardless of age, size, fitness level, or experience. Come move with me — let's cultivate strength, mobility, and balance together!
