Originally from Maryland, USA, Nora discovered her love of dance at a young age, beginning her journey at a ballet and contemporary dance academy before continuing her training at university. She graduated from George Mason University with a BFA in Dance Performance and Arts Administration.

​

After graduating, Nora moved to New York City, where she trained and performed with several contemporary dance companies. It was there that she fell in love with the boutique fitness scene, becoming a regular at Spin, Yoga, and Barre classes.

​

Her passion for movement led her to be selected and trained at Physique 57, where she taught at their Manhattan and Hamptons studios.

Always eager for a new challenge and a broader perspective, Nora relocated to Dubai in the summer of 2013, where she took on the role of Master Trainer & Assistant Director of Recruitment for the brand’s Middle East franchise.

​

Since moving to the Middle East, Nora has continued teaching Barre, Spin, and Megaformer classes at various boutique studios. She is also a REPS and NASM Certified Personal Trainer, an avid yogi, and a proud mother of three.
