After over 21 years of supporting clients through movement I developed Rooted Perinatal Wellness. This online hub is a place where clients & professionals can learn, explore, & connect deeply through movement.

My Background

I have always been fascinated

by the human body.

Brigitte Arlé, C-IAYT, NCPT, ERYT 500, RPYT, YACEP, CEIM, CLC is a yoga therapist that has been practicing yoga since childhood. She was first introduced to classical Pilates mat in 1995 as a young dancer.

In 2005, she was interviewed at the United Nations for her work teaching therapeutic yoga & dance in the Beit Jabrin Refugee Camp in the West Bank. As a new Pilates teacher, Brigitte sought out mentorship from Mary Bowen, a Pilates Elder. Mary encouraged Brigitte to slow down and dive into birth work and perinatal Pilates. Brigitte has been working with prenatal clients ever since.
