TIETOJA TÄSTÄ JAKSOSTA
In this episode, Balanced Body Educator, physical therapist, and studio owner Carrie Lamb joins us to explore what it really means to build strength, on the CoreAlign and beyond. Carrie shares how her background in physical therapy and Pilates led her to discover the CoreAlign, why it completely changed her approach to rehab and movement, and how she continues to find creativity and curiosity after more than 25 years in the field.
From her small studio in Golden, Colorado, Carrie blends clinical insight with a deep love of teaching. In this conversation, she opens up about how to guide students from “what they can’t do” to “what they can,” how to think outside the box while honoring the CoreAlign curriculum, and why collaboration and community are vital for long-term growth as teachers and movers.
In this conversation, you’ll hear how Carrie:
Discovered the CoreAlign and why it reignited her curiosity as both a PT and educator
Blends Pilates and CoreAlign in her studio to support real-world movement and rehabilitation
Cultivates collaboration and communication in her teaching team
Uses resistance, curiosity, and “stepping into strength” to help clients and teachers expand beyond their comfort zones
Developed her upcoming CoLab workshop to inspire creative exploration and confident teaching
We also talk about how Carrie’s “Stepping Into Strength” workshop invites teachers to rethink resistance, challenge their habits, and rediscover the joy of play and experimentation, both in their practice and their teaching.
