“Kim is a PAA Principal Trainer Practitioner member, Pilates studio owner, The Pilates Studio teacher trainer, podcast host of ‘Raising the Bar on the Future of Pilates’ and business coach.
Kim’s mission is to empower ambitious Pilates business owners to build thriving businesses that bring joy, balance, and aligned revenue—freeing you to focus on what you do best: helping people move and feel better with Pilates.
In an ever-evolving industry, Kim believes standing out means more than offering classes — it’s about building a brand that people feel confident in.
Launched in August 2024, on her podcast Raising the Bar on the Future of Pilates Kim chats with Pilates business owners to explore their path to Pilates, their challenges and highlights of building a business in this changing marketplace.
The conversation is flowing and natural and always leads to an interesting perspective or a deeper understanding or insight into the business of Pilates and the dedication it takes. The first episodes feature many wonderful and talented Pilates teachers and business owners who are PAA members. I found Episode 8 with Kerrie Murphy – Infinity Pilates and a recent episode (18) with Kimberley Garlick- Northern Rivers Pilates in Lismore very interesting and inspiring.
For seasoned business owners and those contemplating opening a studio there is much to be gleaned from the conversations. The series really highlights that there are so many different ways and paths to create a Pilates business and that it will grow and evolve and not always how you first expected it to.
Dive in and give it a listen.”
