Hi! I’m Ky, and I'm here to help you care for yourself with all of the energy you put into caring for others! If you're like most of my clients and students you devote the majority of your energy and focus into caring for your family, clients, and causes you support. I have coached hundreds of women (and men) to integrate mindful Pilates workouts and stress relief techniques into their busy, stressful lives – helping them feel amazing and energized! Most importantly, these fabulous people became free to actively and enthusiastically live life on their terms, something that I desire for you too.
As a busy working mom I understand how challenging it can be to give yourself even a moment to focus on your needs. That's why I developed my Blessful Body® Pilates virtual studio and mind and body fitness de-stress system. Effective and efficient courses and workouts that give more vitality, focus, strength, and endurance.
Through my work as a Pilates teacher trainer, kinesiologist, dancer, and yogi I have dedicated myself to honing my craft as a world-class trainer, researcher, and educator. I currently teach as faculty at San José State University, as a Balanced Body Master Pilates Instructor, and for my virtual Pilates membership. Please check out my podcast for my latest insights and current research on Pilates, yoga, stress management, mindfulness, biomechanics, and exercise.
I look forward to sharing and working with you. I believe that the care we give to ourselves lays the foundation for all the loving care we can give to others. The world needs us to access and spread our love and compassion for ourselves and each other (and to have as much fun as possible while doing so)!
Much love friend,
Ky
