Meet Kathryn Martin
FAMO Fascia Movement Practioner
To me, the human body in motion is endlessly fascinating. The way we move and the patterns we use can tell many stories of past experiences and therefore, the body offers a pathway to understanding our past and present experiences and offers guidance on how to move forward. The body is awe inspiring in its resilience, capacity to heal, and possibility for joy. I didn’t always believe this.
In a decade long search to manage chronic back pain, I treated my body as something separate from myself - something that limited me and brought hardship. Slowly with the support of incredible teachers my mind and body changed, healed and integrated into one body-mind. Daily Movement is my essential ritual to support my body-mind relationship.
The power of movement in my life inspired my education to become a Contemporary Pilates Teacher, FAMO Fascia Movement Teacher Advanced Level, and Anatomy Trains Structural Integrator.
My work with clients is deliberate and collaborative. We work together focusing on awareness, alignment, breath, effortless deep core support and increased movement possibilities. I believe pilates and fascia focused movement training offers the possibility to gain or regain mobility, balance, control, agility in every body, opening up the increased possibility for spontaneity and joyful activity.

Your Pathway to Health
Working with me is always uniquely catered to you. Initial sessions always include a conversation about your history and goals and an assessment of your postural and movement patterns. I use these to create a specific practice that meets you where you are and helps move your forward to the next stage in becoming more at home in your body, to fulfill your full potential, and more capable to meet the challenges that you encounter.
​
Each stage flows seamlessly into the next but is also complete empowering you with the skills and knowledge to successfully work individually at home or continuing with regular studio sessions. The stages are described below to give you a framework by which to understand how sessions are structured and to make informed choices about the investment you are making for your body.
