Testimonials:

“Kim is a very experienced Pilates instructor.  She is thoughtful in how she structures sessions to meet your needs. She also has a great positive energy and is fun to work with 1:1 as she pushes you in the ways you need to be pushed to achieve your goals. I have been doing Pilates for 15+ years and Kim is one of the best instructors I have worked with over the years.  Highly recommend working with Kim.”

“I started working with Kim almost 2 years ago and I can't say enough about the extraordinary experience I have had with her! I was a novice to Pilates and have many physical issues: lower back injury, overweight, fatigued body,... I never thought I could do most of the Pilates movements. With her expertise, patience, caring, precision, compassion, and huge depth of experience, Kim helped me through all my challenges and guide me to become so much more confident, agile in my movements, and advance in Pilates level. Today I can't live without Pilates as it's become such a center piece to my overall well-being.”

-Mona A.

“Pilates with Kim has changed my life. Sciatic nerve pain and lower back pain made life miserable for several months. Doing laundry was nearly impossible. Driving more than 30minutes and sitting at a desk was torture. And then I met Kim. After 3-4 sessions I had more range in my lower back and painful symptoms subsided.”
