From professional dancers to weekend hikers, Betina has spent decades helping people move better, feel stronger, and return to the activities they love.
Before joining ALTA, Betina spent 25 years as part of an independent PT & Pilates practice in Long Beach, California, including four years as an owner. Her background as a dance educator and her studies in kinesiology inspired her path into physical therapy, while her own back injury deepened her belief in the power of Pilates for healing and strength.
She’s been studying and teaching Pilates for more than 30 years and has even served as the physical therapist for the UC Irvine dance department.
Now in Colorado, Betina is excited to be closer to family and spend more time skiing, hiking, and enjoying the mountains. When she’s not in the clinic or teaching Pilates, you can usually find her on the trails, in yoga class, cooking something new, or curled up with a good book.
We’re pretty lucky to have her at ALTA!
