Katie
Katie has nurtured a deep passion for athletics since childhood. She grew up in Santa Barbara and danced with the Santa Barbara Festival Ballet until the age of 12, when she took a significant step in her dance career by interning with the Houston Ballet Academy. It was during her time there that she was introduced to Pilates as a crucial component of her conditioning regimen. Captivated by its principles, she later pursued and achieved certification as a Pilates instructor, specializing in physical therapy-based methods.
Katie holds comprehensive certifications in Pilates, as well as in pathologies and injuries, and osteoporosis/osteopenia, all accredited by BASI (Body Arts and Science International). She seamlessly integrates her extensive knowledge of injuries and stretching into her Pilates repertoire, ensuring that each session promotes not just strength, but also balance and alignment.
