Meet Kristen Helal ✨
We are so grateful to welcome Kristen to our community — a somatic movement educator and Pilates instructor with over 25 years of experience and a story that will move you.
Kristen holds a comprehensive certification from STOTT Pilates and has been teaching since 1998. But what makes her truly special is the journey that shaped her teaching. After being diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2008, Kristen turned to Pilates and somatic movement to find her own way back to a body that felt good — and she never looked back.
Today, she works with a beautifully diverse range of clients: dancers, equestrians, seniors, and people living with chronic pain. Her approach is rooted in the nervous system — meeting your body where it is, releasing tension, rebuilding strength, and ultimately helping you feel more ease, joy, and freedom in how you move.
That’s what we’re all about here, and Kristen embodies it completely. We can’t wait for you to experience her work. 🤍
