Location: Los Angeles, California, USA

Olivia is the founder of Strata Pilates, a private studio in Los Angeles offering one-on-one Pilates and Scolio-Pilates®. She is a comprehensively trained Pilates instructor whose work is shaped by an understanding of how the body adapts over time, particularly in the presence of scoliosis, injury, or long-standing movement patterns. Her interest in scoliosis work is both professional and personal. With firsthand experience of scoliosis and chronic nervous system stress, Olivia brings a nuanced understanding of working with a body that does not always feel balanced or predictable. This perspective informs her teaching in a way that is precise, responsive, and tailored to each individual. Before becoming an instructor, Olivia spent over a decade working in the film and television industry, where long hours, repetitive strain, and high-performance demands were the norm. She also has a background in Irish dance, which shaped her early understanding of movement and body awareness. These experiences continue to influence her work, helping clients build strength, awareness, and resilience that translate beyond the studio. Olivia works with clients at all stages, from those newly navigating scoliosis to those seeking long-term support. Her sessions focus on helping clients better understand their individual structure, build strength in a way that supports their body, and develop a sense of stability and ease that carries into everyday life, not just in how they move, but how they feel in their body. Authorized Scolio-Pilates® Practitioner since 2025.
