About Kathy

Love for Pilates.

Though I have enjoyed a very exciting career in everything fitness for over three decades, it has been learning how to perform and teach Pilates that has inspired me the most. The mental and physical strength Pilates offers lends everyone, from anywhere, at any point on their fitness journey - the support and awareness to move their bodies for longevity. I look forward to sharing my experience in, and passion for, staying strong, flexible, mobile - with a focus on endurance and balance - Pilates-style, with you!
