Her work with the PMA allows her to use skills and knowledge from both her previous and current careers. Calling herself an Occupational Pilates Teacher and Movement Analyst, Marcia brings the principles of Pilates and self-MFR work to people with extremely physically rigorous jobs. She teaches workshops worldwide to bartenders, chefs, baristas, actors, singers, dancers, musicians, hairstylists, nurses, and even yoga and Pilates teachers, retraining them in how they use their bodies on the job. Marcia shares the work with anyone who will listen “…because it shouldn’t hurt to do your job.” She is also the author of the audio fairytale series How Piper Became the Petite Pilates Princess and How Piper the Petite Pilates Princess Learned About Courage.
