  Carole Krady

  Pilates Instructor

  After years of being curious about Pilates and its rather strange and intimidating equipment, Carole took the plunge and dove into a Pilates class. It was love at first move! It wasn’t long before she enrolled and completed a Comprehensive Training on all Pilates Apparatus through Polestar® Pilates in Miami. This training enabled Carole to work with Pilates Instructors and Physical Therapists to learn how Joseph Pilates’ teachings of whole body health, whole body commitment and breath could be used to transform any body- no matter what limitations and obstacles are presented. Carole’s love of movement extends beyond Pilates, and she is also a Certified Yoga and Barre Instructor with an emphasis on pre/postnatal Yoga. Her love of learning never ends and she has taken many advanced teacher training courses, including Pilates for Neurological Rehabilitation. She also completed the Certification to become a BUFF BONES® Instructor. This exercise system uses varied and specific bone-strengthening and balance techniques for a safe option for people with osteoporosis and arthritis. Additional workshops include Pilates for recent hip and knee replacements.
