“As a golf fitness professional and yoga instructor with over twenty years experience I can tell you that Katherine and her team of instructors are by far THE best Pilates teachers I have ever worked with. Katherine’s knowledge of the body and keen intuition as an instructor provide an unparalleled experience. I recommend her classes to every golfer looking to play better golf and to anyone looking for better health and vitality. We are so blessed to have her on the Coast.”

"I started taking pilates classes with the Kalijo team about 14 months ago.  For 17 years prior I was focused within the business world, the extent of my exercise routine was walking briskly from one airplane or meeting room to the next.  Maintaining my weight and getting a good nights rest had become an ever increasing battle.  I am delighted to say that has all changed for the better because of my regular pilates practice at Kalijo.  I now sleep soundly, wake up refreshed and feel pretty good in my clothes.  The biggest surprise and reward for me has been to get back out on the soccer field.  In fact, this past Fall I played for my home team of 20 years ago in the World Masters Games in Australia.  For me, working with Kalijo is like having a team of personal trainers who push and pull me along to gains that might otherwise take me years to accomplish in a gym."

"What has Pilates done for me? I entered a dance studio almost three years ago deciding to take up a new form of exercise. Katherine greeted the class with her endearing smile and huge enthusiasm. It was all very new unlike anything I had done before. The “Core” was happening, I felt taller when I walked out of class and for the first time ever I was creating definition. The muscles were elongated and the strength was coming without bulk. Since that day I have been hooked. My regime is two mat classes a week and since spring 2008 now incorporate one semi private reformer class.The studio has a relaxed atmosphere, we laugh and enjoy the work outs we all have fun.Katherine is a perfectionist in everything she does. Her attention to each student is caring and nothing goes a miss “Stomach to spine” More than anything Pilates has given me strength and confidence to ride my bike, (Harley-Davidson) Thank youKatherine and Kalijo Studio!

"Having had to cope with a body that has been badly injured in the past, getting fit, staying fit and not injuring myself while trying to keep fit, has always been a challenge. Katherine has an instinctive sense of what is best for you and your body, whatever your level of fitness is. She is always encouraging, motivating and mindful of where my body is with regards to weak or injured areas.I feel I am in better shape at 52 than I was in my 30's and am looking forward to maintaining a pilates program in the future. I can't say enough in praise of her talents, and feel very fortunate to have had the chance to be a student of hers."
