Meet Our Team
KATE CURTIS
Studio Owner | Instructor
Having grown up a distance runner in Colorado, Kate has always had a passion for health and fitness. Looking to increase strength and flexibility, she turned to Pilates. Its low impact approach to exercise was easy on her joints and helped to positively reinforce the importance of alignment throughout each workout. After noticing results in only a few sessions, she was instantly convinced Pilates was the perfect compliment to her running training.
Kate has since become a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher (NCPT) as well as a comprehensive certified Pilates and Barre instructor through Balanced Body University. Kate’s goal as an instructor is to use the principles of Pilates to help students of all levels find balance, strength, flexibility and a healthy functioning body.

After 15 years of practicing Pilates, Pam decided to take the steps towards teaching so she could share her enthusiasm with others and help them build a better body.
Joseph Pilates quote is true, “You will feel better in ten sessions, look better in twenty sessions and have a completely new body in thirty sessions.”
