• Ankle Sprain
  Katie’s interest in Pilates started in high school through her extensive dance training. When Pilates became an essential part of her recovery from an ankle injury her senior year; she was hooked on the practice and knew Pilates had the potential to play a significant role in her future career as a dancer. While working towards her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance from the University of Missouri-Kansas City Conservatory of Music and Dance, Katie developed an interest in preventive therapies and injury recovery after witnessing many of her peers suffer from injuries that could have been prevented and helped through the low impact strength and alignment training that Pilates offers. This interest led her to the Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Training Program, where she received 500+ hours of training, practice, and observation. After receiving her BFA in dance and graduating from the Polestar Pilates Program as a practitioner in 2019, Katie then earned her national certification through the National Pilates Certification Program under the Pilates Method Alliance, where she continues to learn and grow her practice through continuing education. As a professional dancer and Pilates instructor, Katie hopes to bring her love and passion for movement and healing through movement together in all of her Pilates work. It is her hope that in doing so her clients may experience the full benefit of what Pilates has to offer and the joy of connecting with their own bodies in a way they may never have before.
