Aimee McBride

A native of Frederick, Aimee began as a physical fitness instructor in 1998. As a fitness instructor, she quickly became interested in yoga primarily for the mental and health benefits. Aimee almost immediately saw the positive effects on stress management. In addition, Aimee discovered the benefits of Pilates to strengthen her core and help her with back pain that was originally caused by her scoliosis and spina bifida as a child. Aimee has come to realize the healing power of living naturally through yoga, Pilates and nutrition and wishes to continue to learn more and share her experiences to help others.
