Lily Kim
With over 6 years of experience as a Pilates instructor, I’m passionate about helping clients build strength and flexibility through mindful movement.
​
I hold an NCPT certification and am fully certified in Pilates, having earned my certification in Korea. My background in contemporary dance, which I majored in, gave me a deep understanding of movement. After experiencing injuries while dancing, I developed a strong interest in rehabilitation, anatomy, and posture correction.
​
Since then, I’ve continuously studied these areas, attending workshops and obtaining additional certifications.
My teaching philosophy focuses on creating a balanced body and mind, ensuring each session is both challenging and enjoyable.

She looks forward to getting curious through movement with you.
