Kim Patton
Instructor
Kim strongly believes “if you don’t use it, you lose it.” She has been an exercise enthusiast for more than three decades. One of her ultimate achievements was training for and finishing a 26.5-mile marathon in Honolulu, Hawaii, the fourth largest marathon in the U.S. As Kim entered her fabulous forties, she found that she couldn’t do as much running and high impact exercising as she used to and started looking for something she could get great results from without the high impact on her joints and bones. Something that would keep her strong, fit and flexible well into her 50’s, 60’s 70’s and beyond. Pilates was the answer and that began her Pilates practice some 20 years ago. Her enthusiasm for helping others and sustained commitment to her Pilates practice inspired her to become a Pilates instructor. Kim’s goal as a Pilates instructor is to help her clients create a practice that is sustainable, fulfilling and results oriented. She is very passionate about motivating people of all ages and body types to achieve a fit, strong and well-balanced lifestyle inspiring them to be happy, healthy, and confident throughout their lives and fitness journeys. She loves empowering others to see what their bodies are capable of in ways that are modifiable and adaptable yet effective—meeting them where they are and helping them get to where they want to be. When Kim is not teaching Pilates, she enjoys reading, listening to music, cooking, creating artwork and planning gatherings for her family and friends.
