About Michaela goorahoo
Growing up in the Midwest as a young child, Michaela started her movement training in ballet, tap, jazz, and yoga. Which sparked an enduring love for all forms of movement and expression that led to her desire to become a professional trainer. After suffering a back injury, Michaela was introduced to Pilates and it's ability to strengthen and rehabilitate the body. “Pilates allowed me to step back into my life with a whole new understanding and respect for my body.”
As a child, Michaela struggled with chronic bronchitis and asthma that affected the health of her lungs ™and her ability to perform as a dancer. After many doctors visits and inhalers, she decided there had to be more to learn about how to improve her struggle with breathing. “I couldn't believe that there wasn't more to learn about the breath. So, in a natural form, I became obsessed.” Finding a deeper connection the breath during yoga and meditation practices led her to a major awakening that shifted her perspective on life. Over the past decade, Michaela has studied many forms of breathing practices from Zen Buddhism, Yoga to Shamanic practices as well as the modern discoveries from science on the effects of breathing. Learning directly from some of the best breathwork practitioners, such as Dr. Belisa Vranich, Dan Brule, David Elliot and Stanislav Grof to name a few.
After experiencing life with injury and illness, Michaela has become motivated by overcoming adversity and obsessed with mind, body and spiritual wellness. Through her own personal healing, she has found a connection that has awakened a deep passion to share what has healed her with others. “I live for the experience of helping my clients. Whether their need is rehabilitation, keeping up with aging gracefully or looking for a hardcore workout. I'm a practitioner and a trainer because I love to connect with my clients and watch them grow and thrive by holding space where they can discover their own power, beauty, and strength.” Michaela is a BREATHE™ Certified practitioner as well as a certified Pilates Instructor through the Pilates Sports Center.
