Keirsten’s love for focused mind-body movement started at an early age as a gymnast. In her late 20′s, a battle with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL) challenged her mind-body connection, and she found Pilates and Massage Therapy to be very powerful healing methods for reconnecting to her life and her movement again.

Today, she uses her past experiences to assist others with pain or anxiety. She has worked with individuals ages 8 - 80, from those with limited mobility to athletic ability. Keirsten has taught Pilates and yoga in mental health hospitals, schools, and corporations, and she participates in the Rochester Mental Health Association's "Be Well" events.

Keirsten graduated from SUNY Geneseo with a BA in Communication and attended The George Washington University for master’s work in Healthcare Administration and Leadership.  She is also a co-founder of the Perry Farmers' Market.
