Hello! I’m Kim.

I am the founder and head teacher of The Pilates Studio Blackwood. Creator of The Pilates Studio Teacher Training, podcast host of ‘Raising the Bar on the Future of Pilates’ and business coach.

I have always loved entrepreneurship, but I have made nearly as many mistakes in my business as I’ve had successes. Here’s the truth of the matter: My first studio bombed. I really thought ‘If I build it they will come’ I was as naive about business ownership as you can possibly get. I mean it. Clueless.

I have learnt a great deal over the last decade, it hasn’t always been easy (Covid and a cost of living crisis included) but it has been worth it.

I have dealt with burnout, disappointment, frustration but also a deep sense of empowerment through running a studio, despite all the set backs.

The thing that has got me through time and time again is having a business coach that has my back, but also challenges me to move out of my comfort zone to get results (I’m an introvert at heart).

I want to be real with you, building a business takes courage and a lot of patience. My mission is to help you navigate the ups and downs of owning a Pilates business (or preparing to open one if that’s the case) as well as prompt you to develop a business that also works for you.

I’ll be your cheerleader and collaborator and I will help you with actionable steps that helps you create a business to be proud of.

If you enjoy working hard to achieve something meaningful to you as well as meaningful to the lives of your clients, then let’s chat.
