My first introduction to the Gyrotonic Method was love at first sight. It offered a unique perspective of the body and expanded my way of moving in the world. My mission is to bring the Gyrotonic Method to more people, to help them cultivate their own practice of healthy movement, to guide them on their journey to a stronger, freer body and to expand their possibilities for a more fulfilling life.

My teaching is grounded in the Gyrotonic Method and classical Pilates. I strive to seek out the nuanced imbalances in my client’s body and create each lesson to give them a full-body workout while at the same time addressing those imbalances. I take pride in teaching with a focus and clarity that empowers my client to understand the problem and make a tangible shift that they can feel and carry over into their daily life. I aim to build upon the smaller successes of individual lessons to see people through to their unique goals.
Katie is a thoughtful and masterful Pilates and Gyrotonic teacher. Her classes are challenging and fun, and her experience allows her to meet every person at their own level while pushing us all! I always leave feeling more centered, aligned, and grounded physically and mentally. These classes are truly a cornerstone to healthy physicality for everyone, from professional movers and athletes to those just starting to incorporate exercise into their lives.

Over the last year consistently working with Katie, I have transformed my approach to exercise. I now consider spinal support the most critical aspect of movement. It has been revolutionary for my body, and I see stubborn, chronic injuries melting away. I couldn’t ask for a more intuitive and constructive advisor.

I have taken many different movement classes through the years, but Katie’s thorough knowledge of body dynamics has by far elevated my training to the next level. Her classes help you understand your body, challenge your body and yet still remain fun and light hearted. It’s not every day you find a teacher like this!
