About Amy Buck. . . .

Amy first fell in love with Pilates in Sun Valley, Idaho where she decided to turn in her snowboard and years of instruction for an opportunity to train in this phenomenon of ‘intelligent exercise’ in Seattle, WA. Amy graduated from the University of Georgia with a BSED in Early Childhood Education. After a stint of teaching in Christchurch New Zealand, Amy decided to follow her inner ski bum and became a snowboard instructor in Steamboat Springs, Co. During the summers she guided outdoor adventure trips across North America for Trek America. In 1998 she ventured off on her own to start Blueplanet Adventures, a backpacking company guiding through Olympic National Park. Her passion for working with people, dance and fascination with human movement led her to the STOTT instructor training program at Bodycenter Studios in 2004. Amy has been teaching ever since and feels honored everyday with the opportunity to help guide people through their bodies gaining awareness, strength and balance.
