Balanced Body Certified Pilates Instructor
Kara first discovered Pilates as a way to cross-train and prevent injury while
dancing. She fell in love with how this method made her feel longer &
stronger from the inside out. She believes movement is medicine and everyone
can benefit from Pilates because when we are more connected with
ourselves and our powerhouse, we lead happier and more empowered lives.
