Comprehensively Certified Pilates Teacher

Founder of Heart of Movement
Movement is powerful—it can heal, energize, and transform. As the founder of Heart of Movement, I’ve made it my life’s work to help people reconnect with their bodies, build strength, and move with purpose.
Founder of Heart of Movement, Kim took her first Pilates class in 2002 and immediately noticed the changes in her body. Having witnessed firsthand the transformative power of Pilates, she went on to receive her comprehensive certification from Peak Pilates in 2015.
A lifelong student of movement, Kim has continued to train, completing Carrie Russo’s mentorship and continues to study weekly with Carrie in the Pilates Lab.
Kim has been teaching movement since 2007, when she completed her first yoga teacher training at Kula and continued to dive deeper into the practice, completing Todd Norian’s Anusara-based training as well as being certified in prenatal and postnatal yoga.
​
Kim’s greatest joy comes from seeing her students thrive. Whether you’re working to improve your posture, recover from injury, or feel stronger and more vibrant. Kim meets you exactly where you are and guides you forward. With her unique ability to understand what the body in front of her needs, she believes “every body” is unique and every journey is worth celebrating.
​
Kim’s teaching blends precision and play, challenge and compassion. She has a deep dedication and respect for the classical work and all it has to offer.

PILATES STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
"Kim is the most knowledgeable Pilates instructor I have ever had. As an ultramarathoner, she has helped me with my cross-training for running. I have seen great improvement in my core strength and stride length."

“Kim is an expert in her field. I have Sciatica and have been in several car accidents With Kim's advanced training and expertise, we have mobilized my spine such that I no longer have shooting pain. My core is stronger than ever and I have increased mobility in my whole body."
Elizabeth S.
I have been a Pilates client of Kim’s at Heart of Movement for over 9 years. Kim is a very caring, intuitive, professional Pilates instructor with a very positive and encouraging attitude. She is a patient Pilates guide and is always noticing my body imbalances. Kim has helped me gain personal strength and is very aware of my back limitations! I have improved immensely over the last 9 years, especially in core strength, posture and fitness endurance. Pilates also helped me build personal strength, increase body awareness and become more centered. I would highly recommend Kim and Heart of Movement!

"In the nine years that I have practiced with Kim, I have been able to advance my Pilates practice more than I imagined was possible (and more than I was able to do in the previous 12+ years with various other instructors). Kim provides a phenomenal, tailored, challenging and fun workout every time! I am stronger than ever. I stand taller, the chronic pain in my hip and shoulder that I lived with for years is gone, and my body is transformed. I LOVE working with Kim! I wouldn't want to imagine my life without Heart of Movement!"
