About Kristie

As a trained and competitive Ballet dancer, Kristie’s introduction to Pilates began at an early age. Dancing sometimes twenty hours a week, she started each day with Pilates and saw how it helped to improve her flexibility and strength. Kristie continued with her Ballet training at Meredith College where she graduated with majors in Dance, Psychology and Communications. After the birth of her two girls Kristie wanted the strength and energy to keep up with her busy family. She began running and was then introduced to Pilates on the reformer were she quickly saw changes in her physical and mental well-being. Pilates eased the aches and pains of taking care of small children and gave her a way to focus and relax during busy stressful days. Those changes reignited her passion for fitness. She had a desire to show others how Pilates could change their quality of life and decided to become an instructor. Kristie makes personal connections with her students in her classes so the she gets to know their challenges and their strengths. She enjoys seeing a student’s progress and hearing how classes have changed the way they feel and the way they move in their daily activities. She holds certifications in Pilates as well as Barre and has worked with pre and postnatal clients, clients with injuries to their knees, shoulders and backs, as well as breast cancer survivors. When Kristie isn’t in the studio teaching she is spending time with her husband watching their two girls as they pursue their passions for ballet and gymnastics.
