Michelle Kerby, born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. I was in the corporate world for years, then I "saw the light" started training with a Pilates Teacher who mentored and guided me well. I eventually trained, certified and then owned and operated a successful Pilates Studio in Tacoma, Washington before relocating to Park City, Utah. I moved to Park City with my awesome and outdoor-loving husband Mike and two awesome labradors Floyd and Yukon. I teach "Intelligent Movement" also known as Pilates. I have extensive Pilates education and Physical Therapy exposure to enhance my knowledge. My Pilates Certifications include; PhysicalMind Institute - NYC, Polestar Pilates - Florida. The Polestar curriculum was designed by Physical Therapist and Orthopedic Certified Specialist and is based on a scientific foundation of anatomy, physiology, biomechanics and motor control, and integrates scientific research findings in the areas of orthopedics, sports medicine and movement science. I am also certified by the governing body for top Pilates Professionals, The Pilates Method Alliance.

A Seattle Native with Hawaiian ancestry, I have always had movement, dance and music in my life. A figure skater of more than 15 years, avid mountain climber, skier, mountain biker, skier (skate, downhill & cross-country) , hiker....there is nothing about this magical place we live I don't love. We moved to Park City in October 2007 where I relocated my studio. I wanted to scale it down to focus on teaching pilates v.s. the business of running a big pilates studio. Active in the community and passionate about what I do, I have created a more exclusive, private location, catering to some of our world-class US Ski Team members as well as our equestrian and local athletic population. I am fortunate to meet some lucky visitors who come to Park City for the Sundance Film Festival, winter sports and our amazing summers. My studio is perfect for those who desire privacy and a place to focus.

I continue my growth and learning by studying under some of Pilates most senior teachers, elders and movement specialists ( Brent Anderson, PhD., Mary Bowen, Rael Isacowitz, "the late" Kathy Grant, Rebecca Leone, Michele Larsson, Alan Herdman, Leslie Powell). I frequently attend continuing education classes, private pilates sessions from senior level instructors as well as maintain active membership with the PMA Pilates Method Alliance and other movement practices.

It is very important to create a comfortable learning environment where there is privacy, professionalism and exclusivity. This has been well received in the Park City area and my clients have all appreciated this. The best way to find me is by referral. I don't advertise for this specific reason, I let my clients be my advocates. There is no better compliment.

I am very happy to be living in Park City. I take great pride in my clients experience, giving you only the best I have to offer. I hope to share in the experience with you, should you live here or are just visiting. Email me michelle@pilatesparkcity.com your questions or concerns or you can call me at 435-659-8779.
