Katrina began her Pilates journey in 2012 and began teaching in 2022. She is a comprehensively trained Pilates instructor through Polestar Pilates. Katrina teaches beginner/intermediate-level classes and private sessions at Cornerstone.

Katrina started her Pilates journey through Physical Therapy. Seeking out help for her Scoliosis, she found a Pilates-based Physical Therapy clinic in Austin. After seeing the drastic changes in her own life that Pilates provided, Katrina was inspired to share that knowledge and work with other people. Katrina was especially drawn to the whole-body wellness that Pilates brought into her life.

Katrina appreciates the restorative properties that Pilates can bring to one’s life and actively uses that style of movement during her sessions. She often incorporates elements of mindfulness into her Pilates practice, fostering a deeper connection between mind and body. This holistic approach allows her clients to not only strengthen their physical bodies but also cultivate inner balance and peace.

After talking with her Physical Therapist about becoming a Pilates instructor, she enrolled in the Polestar Pilates Training Program in Summer 2021. She completed her Polestar Training in Spring 2023, as well as her apprenticeship through Cornerstone Pilates. As of 2024, she has completed the year-long Residency Training Program at Cornerstone Pilates and continues her training by taking private sessions, attending teachers labs, and attending webinars from a multitude of professionals in the Pilates field.
