  Kitty is a true expert in Pilates, movement, and overall wellness. Working with her has been a game-changer for how I move and recover. Her private sessions have noticeably improved my posture, core strength, and balance. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, attentive to form and breath work, and every session feels personalized.

  If you want to try Reformer Pilates this is the place. There is no one better than Kitty James. After training with Kitty I’m in the best shape of my life.  I started shortly after having a c-section; she was knowledgeable, safe, and provided modifications where necessary. I’ve done one to one sessions with kitty and I’ve also worked with her in a duet; she’s equally available to you in both settings. She will hold you accountable and make you work, while training you the right way, the right posture, and giving you the necessary fundamentals and structure to see the results you want. I really appreciate Kitty’s approach it for no other reason than because I don’t have an hour to waste in a setting that’s not personalized or fails to provide the necessary structure and attention to help me master the skills. The studio is immaculate and pristine. Parking is very easy and always available. If you are looking  an upscale personalized fitness experience on Coronado island - training with kitty is the experience you need.

  Kitty has been a staple in the business of rehabilitation of injured populations in San Diego for nearly two decades. She has run the gamut of old and young, injured and those looking for a challenge to their normal workout routines, dancers and athletes, and mothers wanting to reclaim their bodies post pregnancy. A fun fact: Pilates was actually created by Joseph Pilates, to aid in the rehabilitation of injured British service members of WW1. Kitty has treated American military service members on Coronado for years, and has a proven track record. Speaking from the experience of being post surgical with separate hip and knee surgeries, I directly attribute the addition of the Pilates modalities she trained me in as critical to my accelerated recovery, and the ability to deploy successfully throughout my career as a former Navy SEAL. For any men reading this who have thought about doing Pilates, but think that there would be no benefit, I am here to tell you that you are sadly mistaken. Pilates was a game changer for me, and it can absolutely be that for you as well.
