About Me
Hello, I’m Desrae Edwards — a dedicated wellness practitioner with over 20 years of experience supporting women through every stage of life. At Holistic Balance Studio, I help women aged 45 and over reconnect with their bodies, minds, and spirits through Pilates, holistic therapies, and personal care that nurtures from the inside out.
When I’m not in the studio, you’ll find me walking long trails, hiking in nature, or journeying along the Caminos. These quiet adventures nourish my soul and continue to inspire my work — teaching me about resilience, reflection, and the healing rhythm of movement.
My Philosophy
“True wellness is multi-dimensional. It blends physical strength, emotional balance, mental clarity, spiritual connection, and meaningful relationships. These become even more vital as we age to support how we feel, move, and live fully.”
My Professional Background
I’m a certified BASI Pilates instructor, blending classical principles with modern movement science. My practice is also deeply enriched by complementary healing therapies that support the whole person — body, mind, and spirit.
