testimonials
For over 6 years I have been fortunate to have Karla as my Pilates instructor. She doesn't just take me through the Pilates routine she also teaches me good posture and proper body alignment. She is extremely attentive to detail...both form and function...continually educating me on the finer points, making minor modifications to how I perform that make major differences in the results. The older I get the more beneficial I find Karla's instruction, support and guidance to maintaining and improving my overall sense of wellness, both mind and body. She is continually improving her own knowledge and abilities as a student and instructor of Pilates and other related fields which demonstrates her commitment to being the best that she can be for her clients.
